Burn us up

Hello, hello,

it is a beautiful Friday morning and the sun is shining into my room. I love early mornings in the summer! Simply amazing!
About a year ago a I did a series on my blog about Heroes and I did one post about the three men in the furnace, called "Brave people of influence".
Today I want to share the lyrics of a song by Shane & Shane with you called "Burn us up".
I just want to encourage you to be brave, to fear the Lord because when we fear God we do not have to be afraid of anything!

There were three
Before the king
There were three who wouldn’t bow
to him
For when you heard
The music play
And you were standing you
would burn.
They looked at him and said…

Burn us up! Burn us up!
Burn us up!
Oh king won’t you burn us in the furnace of
Your desire
We give up! We give up! We give up!
Oh king won’t you burn us in the
furnace of
Your desire!
Won’t you throw us in the fire!

The king
enraged
At what they said
Sent the three away to find their death
The palace stopped in unbelief
When the guilty raised their hands to
sing
They looked to him and said…

Burn us up! Burn us up! Burn us
up!
Oh king won’t you burn us in the furnace of
Your desire
We give
up! We give up! We give up!
Oh king won’t you burn us in the furnace of
Your desire!
Won’t you throw us in the fire!

You are able to
deliver from the fire of affliction
It’s the declaration of my Lord
You’re not an image of gold
You’re the God of old
You have made us
Come and save us
We are Yours
But even if You don’t,

Burn us
up! Burn us up! Burn us up!
Oh king won’t you burn us in the furnace of
Your desire
We give up! We give up! We give up!
Oh king won’t you
burn us in the furnace of
Your desire!
Won’t you throw us in the
fire
