from the CD "Bring Glory"

Submission to God is not something we can enter into casually . . .

I’m gonna need some matches
Maybe some gasoline
And when the wind catches
It’s gonna be the end of me

I must have tried a thousand times
A thousand prayers, a thousand lies
I’m gonna need some matches
I’m gonna need some matches

My hand’s a little shaky
Somebody steady me
My courage always fails me
Right about the time I hit my knees

But everything comes down to this
I choose the fire and faithfulness
It’s time for something drastic
I’m gonna need some matches

And you’ll see me burn, burn, burn
Turning into something new
Watch me burn, burn, burn
Burn away
Anything
That isn’t You

I’m gonna need some matches
Maybe some gasoline
And when the wind catches . . .
