I remember what it was like to be lost

I remember running as a young child

Thinking about how many problems this world has

I remember thinking I was going to do something about it

I remember when I began to grow into a teenager

I felt a spark light in my soul

I didn't know just how big of an explosion that spark would cause

I remember staring into the eyes of the lifeless

Speaking the words of life

I remember fighting those long nights

Fighting thoughts of suicide

Wrestling the demons in my mind

Jesus overcame

And I forgot

I forgot his power

I forgot the fire

I've prayed for a revival in my soul

Like it's God's fault or something

You see I did a whole lot of talking but not much listening

I will stoke these dimming embers in my soul

I will let them grow

I will carry this fire in my soul

I will Remember
