You've been beaten up badly Your life is a mess Got no money in your pockets Can't seem to get no rest Got your eyes on other's profits And you'll steal to get your own Got no food in your belly Got no place that you call home I believe in love Love believes in me From an act of mercy The Word has set me free Your hands are tied behind you Even though there is no rope Your friends they all despise you But there's one who gives you hope He's the one who stands before you Even though your in the dark With His light He will explore you And He'll cleanse your blackened heart I believe in love Love believes in me From an act of mercy The Word has set me free Escape from the fire No need to burn uot young Escape from the fire And believe in the only one Escape from the fire On your way to the Father and the Son Escape from the fire
