Hearts of Fire (feat. Kevin Kinsella) 歌词

These hearts of fire Don't want no water Blood of the martyrs Lambs to the slaughter They sacrifice their lives for Christ Dying for their faith Blood of the innocent Prepare the way Open the gates (aahh) Receive the saints (aahh) We celebrate (aahh) They've found their place (aahh) These hearts of fire Don't want no water Blood of the martyrs Lambs to the slaughter Imagine if they broke down your front door today And put a (gun) barrel to your head "Deny Christ and you'll live," they say "Stand for Him, you'll be dead!" I shall decree (aahh) I'm following the Nazarene (aahh) I'll stand and say (aahh) I walk with the Man from Galilee (aahh) Listen, remember back in the Bible days Stephen was martyred for his faith Before accusers unashamed They hurled stones while Stephen prayed "I see the Heavens, they are open wide and the Son of Man at God's right side Judge them not, Father, for their sin." (Acts 7:54-60) And so the story of the church begins These hearts of fire Don't want no water Blood of the martyrs Lambs to the slaughter See them standing before the throne Dressed in garments of white (Rev 6:11) Angels singing "Hallelujah" On their heads He placed a crown (Rev 2:10) On their heads He placed a crown These hearts of fire Don't want no water Blood of the martyrs Lambs to the slaughter Today’s treatment of Christians in many nations is disturbingly reminiscent of the brutal persecution of first century Christians In North Korea, thousands of Christian families are imprisoned in penal labor camps, with 80 executed last year for possessing Bibles Kidnapped! 276 Christian school girls in Nigeria Iran raids church services, punishing Christians with prolonged detention, torture and executions We're hearing horrifying reports of crucifixions and Christians being buried alive, including children A brutal video of 21 orange-clad Egyptian Christians simultaneously beheaded! Around the world, amid the violence, persecution, civil war and mass death, more and more are coming to Christ through the blood of these martyrs
