Verse 1
Even though your face it wears a smile,
You're wondering if God heard your prayer.
Your pain has lasted quite a while.
"Is He really up there?"
Even though I see you so confused,
Still you reach out your hand.
And when you're wondering how God could use
Someone like you, He understands.
Even though your head falls to the ground,
I know you'll make it.
And though your heart with pain it pounds
He can sooth it.
Chorus
Don't give up, it's not to late.
I know you're tired, but baby,
Don't give in before the bell rings
And dreams expire.
It's a beautiful heart that's been through the fire.
-----
Verse 2
Even though your heart has been quite torn,
Still there's something in your eyes
That makes me know why you've been born
And why for us our Savior died.
There's something special about His touch
That gives us courage to believe
In the simple faith we want so much,
And now I know you can receive.
Even though your hopes have run away,
Yet Jesus stands here.
His gentle tears for you explain
My God is fair.
Repeat Chorus
Bridge
Burning beauty, it won't last long.
Burning beauty, your heart's my song.
These flames will only make you strong.-
These flames will only make you strong.-
Lead break: --- four times
