C            Csus 
I'm laying down my life 
 
         C 
I'm giving up control 
 
           Csus 
I'm never looking back 
 
       Am 
I surrender all 
           F            C  Csus 
I'm living for Your glory on the earth 
C            Csus 
This passion in my heart 
              C 
This stirring in my soul 
            Csus 
To see the nations bow 
              Am 
For all the world to know 
               F      C 
I'm living for Your glory on the earth 
 
 
Chorus:    
C             Csus              C 
For the sake of the world burn like a fire in me 
       
             Csus             Am 
Light a flame in my soul for every eye to see

For the sake of the world burn like a fire in me 
 
 
Bridge: 
Am               F 
For every knee to bow down 
 
             C 
For every heart to believe 
 
               G 
For every voice to cry out 
 
              Am 
Burn like a fire in me 
 
              F 
For every tongue to confess 
 
           C 
You alone are the King 
 
               G 
You are the hope of the earth 
 
             F G Am C F Dm Am G 
Burn like a fire in me
