I'm Not Ashamed

(álbum: Live & In The Can - 1996)

There was a time as a little boy
When I said I'd follow You
But the years have caused the flame
To burn much stronger now
And I'm not burning down any of my bridges
But I'm burning up inside
To flee from my religion and love my neighbour more

I'm not ashamed of the gospel
I'm not ashamed of the one I love
Yeah
I'm not ashamed of the gospel
I'm not ashamed of the one I love

There were times in my barrenness
When I felt Your pure affection
And You heard my frail petitions
To serve You endlessly
But have I loved the tree that they put You on?
Or my friend who met me at the cross?
Oh I want to sing again for my brother
And find my way down this mountain

I'm not ashamed of the gospel
I'm not ashamed of the One I love
I'm not ashamed of the gospel
I'm not ashamed of the One I love

Yeah

I'm not ashamed of the gospel
I'm not ashamed of the One I love
Thank You, Jesus
I'm not ashamed of the gospel
I'm not ashamed of the One I love

I'm not ashamed any more
'Cos I've found Jesus
And I've felt the oil pour down
And I've felt the oil pour down me
It's getting stronger
Getting stronger
Can you feel it, it's getting stronger now. Here it comes
Sing like you're not ashamed

Here comes the oil
Everybody

I'm not ashamed of the gospel
I'm not ashamed of the One I love
Yeah
I'm not ashamed of the gospel
I'm not ashamed of the One I love

Rise up church and sing, everybody

I'm not ashamed of the gospel
I'm not ashamed of the One I love
We're living for You, Jesus. Thank You. Thank You
I'm not ashamed of the gospel
I'm not ashamed of the One I love

Hey
Hey, I'm living for You
