If desperation had a face would it look like me?
If desperation had a voice
would it sound like me?
Thank You for Your invitation to rest by Your fire
These are desperate times and we take drastic measures
to live with burning
desire
If passion had a price would it be worth dying for?
If love could make things right then what are we fighting
for?
You light my way as I walk through the shadows,
You’re a consuming fire
These are desperate times and we take drastic measures
to live with burning
desire
I want to live (I want to really live)
I want to know (I want to know Your truth)
I want to love (I want to really love)
I want to burn with desire for You
If perfection had a name it would be the Holy One
If salvation was a man it would be God’s only Son
He wants to make you pure as gold in His refining fire
These are desperate times and we take drastic measures
to live with burning
desire
I want to see (I want to see with Your eyes)
I hope to be (someone that You can use)
Just let my life (be a vessel of Your grace)
I want to burn with desire for You
