Pass The Flame Lyrics

Three a.m. - a baby boy; a new life began

I held him in my arms and knew one day he'd be a man

And soon I'd have to tell him that

this world is not our home

We must give our lives to Jesus; we are not our own

But for now just let me hold you, a little while

Let me adore you while you sleep

Thank You, Lord, for such an angel

Make him Yours to keep

And then I whispered in his ear

There is something you must hear

CHORUS:

Any way the wind blows

Don't you think that God knows

We must pass the flame

We must pass the flame

We are the light in a darkened world

We are the fire on the arrow

We must pass the flame

We must pass the flame

She was a portrait of innocence I

took her by the hand

For better or for worse we vowed

that with Jesus we'd stand

We would instill upon our children

that this world is not our home

We would tell them that our treasure

is the promise that we own

But for now just let me hold you a little while

Let me adore you while you sleep

Thank You, Lord, for such an angel

Make them Yours to keep

So let me whisper in your ear

There is something you must hear

CHORUS

And Lord, help us teach Your children well

And turn embers in to fire

Make Your love their soul desire

The doctors came into the room; the

news was not too good

I said, Daddy, if I could take your

place, you know that I would.

He said, Son, please don't worry go

and be there for your wife

You know we'll be together in an everlasting life.

Then I said, Dad, I want to hold you a little while

Let me adore you while you sleep.

Thank You, Lord, for such an angel

Take him home to keep

And then he whispered in my ear

There is something you must hear

CHORUS(x2)
