Found Me In The Fire

[Verse 1]
I was walking past midnight
Heart like a crime scene
Taped off
Every shadow knew my secrets
Every corner felt like a cut-off
They were waiting in the alley
Hate in their hands like chains
I could taste my own last heartbeat
Thought this was the end of my name
[Chorus]
He found me in the fire
Pulled me from the wire
I didn't call His name
He still broke my chains
I didn’t find God
He found me
On the floor of that dark dead end street
Now every breath I breathe
Is a witness I’m still free
[Verse 2]
I remember that cold hand
Reaching toward my face
Then a siren split the silence
Like a trumpet full of grace
I don’t know how it happened
They just scattered
Dropped their rage
All I saw was flashing mercy
Painting red on every page
[Chorus]
He found me in the fire
Pulled me from the wire
I didn't call His name
He still broke my chains
I didn’t find God
He found me
On the floor of that dark dead end street
Now every breath I breathe
Is a witness I’m still free
[Bridge]
I’ve wrestled with the nightmares
Still feel hands around my throat
But a stronger hand is holding
Every shiver in my bones
When the demons start their talking
Saying
“You were meant to die”
I throw back my living heartbeat
Like a fist into their eyes (yeah!)
[Chorus]
He found me in the fire
Pulled me from the wire
I didn't call His name
He still broke my chains
I didn’t find God
He found me
Where the blood met the concrete
Now every breath I breathe
Sings
“My God rescued me”
[Outro]
He found me in the fire
He found me in the fire
I didn’t find God
He found me
And He’ll find you when you can’t see

rock, Big arena gospel-rock, male vocals. Clean electric arpeggios in the verse over tom-heavy drums, then chorus erupts with wide distorted guitars, organ swells, and stacked choir harmonies. Bridge strips to kick, bass, and organ pedal tones before the final chorus modulates up, adding gang vocals and a soaring lead guitar line to lift the testimony., gospel
