Jason Crabb Friend In The Fire Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You can get bitter from the flames, you can get hurt
You can get worn out and lost 'cause you got burned
But when you the see the hand of God reaching through the fire
He can raise you from the ashes and make you new again

[Chorus]
Forge me in the flames, bend my desires
I yield my will, refine me in the fire
Whatever it takes to take me higher
You've never forsaken me
You stayed through the heat
You're a friend in the fire

[Verse 2]
I've lived and I've lost the ones I've loved
I've looked to the sky and asked God "Why was my faith not enough?"
But then I saw the hand of God reaching through the fire
He pulled me from the ashes and made me new again

[Chorus]
Forge me in the flames, bend my desires I yield my will, refine me in the fire
Whatever it takes to take me higher
You've never forsaken me
You stayed through the heat
You're a friend in the fire

[Bridge]
Everything I loved, the thief tried to take away
But when I ran into the cross, it changed everything
Now I know I serve the God
Who is for me

[Refrain]
Forge me in the flames, bend my desires
I yield my will, refine me in the fire
Whatever it takes to take me higher
Oh, oh

[Outro]
Forge me in the flames, bend my desires
I yield my will, refine me in the fire
Whatever it takes to take me higher
Oh, you've never forsaken me
You stayed through the heat
You're a friend in the fire
Friend in the fire
