Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I remember standing in the ashes
Looking at what used to be
Everything I thought would last forever
Was burning right in front of me
I asked You why You didn't stop it
Why You let me walk through flames
But somewhere in the middle of the fire
I heard You call my name
[Pre-Chorus]
And You said
"Keep walking
I'm right here"
So trembling
I moved through my fear
[Chorus]
The fire didn't take me
The flames couldn't claim me
I walked through the heat
But You walked there beside me
I came out with scars
But I came out believing
The fire didn't take me
'Cause God wouldn't leave me
[Verse 2]
I don't look like who I was before it
Maybe that's the point of all this pain
Some things I thought I couldn't live without
Had to burn so I could change
Now the smoke has finally cleared
And there's something I can see
I didn't walk out empty-handed
You put stronger faith in me
[Chorus]
The fire didn't take me
The flames couldn't claim me
I walked through the heat
But You walked there beside me
I came out with scars
But I came out believing
The fire didn't take me
'Cause God wouldn't leave me
[Bridge – Quiet]
I wasn't alone in the fire
I wasn't alone in the pain
Every step through the furnace
You were calling my name
[Bridge – Building]
I lost some things
But I found You
I shed some tears
But I found truth
I walked through hellish nights
But morning came
[Final Chorus – Huge]
THE FIRE DIDN'T TAKE ME!
THE FLAMES COULDN'T BREAK ME!
I walked through the heat
With the Lord right beside me
And these scars tell the story
Of mercy and glory
I went into the fire
But the fire didn't take me!
[Outro]
Look at me...
I'm still standing.
Look at God...
He never left.
