Fire that only You can breath
Fire that burns up everything but You
Come throw a couple logs on the fire
'Cause I wanna burn
Not just a spark, not just a flame
I wanna burn for You
'Cause a man on fire doesn't care what he looks like
Doesn't care what he sounds like
A man on fire doesn't care what he looks like
Care what he sounds like
Care what he lives like
I wanna burn for You
I wanna burn for You
Oh, so set me ablaze
Set me on fire
I can't contain it
I can't contain it
Oh, set me ablaze
Set me on fire
Oh, sing "God, if I burn, I'll burn for You."
So God, if I burn, I'll burn for You (Oh, tell Him tonight)
God, if I burn, I'll burn for You (Only You, only You yeah)
So God, if I burn, I'll burn for You (You're my passion, You're my obsession)
God, if I burn, I'll burn for You (Oh, God, if I burn, I'll burn)
God, if I burn, I'll burn for You
God, if I burn, I'll burn for You (Give me a fresh fire)
Give me a fresh, fresh fire
Give me a fresh, fresh fire
I want what You desire
I'm gonna burn for You
Give me a fresh, fresh fire
Give me a fresh, fresh fire
I want what You desire
I'm gonna burn for You, God
"Fresh Fire" by Maverick City Music is a powerful worship song that ignites a burning desire for God's presence and a fresh outpouring of His Spirit. The song calls for a consuming fire to come and consume our hearts, ready to burn for Him without hesitation or reservation.
The lyrics of "Fresh Fire" express a deep longing for a renewed passion and intensity in our relationship with God. It is a cry for a fresh encounter with the Holy Spirit, asking Him to set our hearts ablaze with a fire that only He can ignite. The song acknowledges that living for God requires a total surrender and a willingness to be consumed by His presence.
The inspiration behind "Fresh Fire" comes from the biblical concept of fire as a symbol of God's presence and power. In the Old Testament, we see numerous instances where God revealed Himself through fire, such as the burning bush that Moses encountered in Exodus 3 or the pillar of fire that led the Israelites in the wilderness. Fire represents the holiness and purity of God, as well as His refining and purifying work in our lives.
One scripture verse that relates to the theme of "Fresh Fire" is found in Acts 2:3-4, which describes the Day of Pentecost when the Holy Spirit descended upon the disciples in the form of tongues of fire. This event marked the birth of the early church and the empowerment of believers to spread the gospel. It was a supernatural manifestation of God's presence that transformed ordinary individuals into bold and passionate witnesses for Christ.
Another scripture that resonates with the song is Romans 12:11, which encourages believers to be fervent in spirit, serving the Lord. The phrase "fervent in spirit" implies a burning passion and zeal for God, a desire to live wholeheartedly for Him. "Fresh Fire" captures this longing to be on fire for God, to have an unquenchable thirst for His presence, and to be consumed with a love for Him that surpasses all else.
The song also echoes the words of Jesus in Matthew 5:14-16, where He calls His followers to be the light of the world. The lyrics emphasize the need for believers to shine brightly with the fire of God's love and truth, not hiding or containing the flame within themselves. It is a call to let the fire of God's presence burn so brightly within us that it impacts and transforms the world around us.
"Fresh Fire" is a powerful anthem that stirs the hearts of believers to seek a fresh encounter with God and to live with a burning passion for Him. It reminds us that our relationship with God should not be stagnant or lukewarm, but rather a continual pursuit of His presence and a desire to be consumed by His fire. It is a declaration of surrender, a cry for revival, and an invitation for the Holy Spirit to ignite a fresh fire within us.
In conclusion, "Fresh Fire" by Maverick City Music is a captivating worship song that invites us to experience a renewed passion and intensity in our relationship with God. It draws inspiration from biblical themes of fire as a symbol of God's presence and power, and it encourages believers to pursue a burning desire for Him. Through its heartfelt lyrics and powerful melodies, "Fresh Fire" serves as a reminder that our lives should be consumed by the fire of God's love, shining brightly for the world to see.
