Keep Me Burning Lyrics

1 Verse:
Give me oil in my lamp
Give me fire in my bones
Put a song in my heart
And a joy in my soul
And when the night rolls in
When the feelings fade
Give me oil in my lamp
Till the break of day

Chorus:
Jesus keep me
Keep me burning
Jesus keep me
Keep me burning
With the passion
That I had in my youth
Jesus keep me
Burning for You

2 Verse:
You’re the guide to my path
You’re a friend on this road
You’re the compass and map
And I’m never alone
When the future is dark
You will light thе way
‘Cause You’re the oil in my lamp
Till thе break of day
Chorus:
Jesus keep me
Keep me burning
Jesus keep me
Keep me burning
With the passion
That I had in my youth
Jesus keep me
Burning for You

Bridge:
Breathe upon the embers now
Breathe upon a heart sold out
Breathe upon a life laid down
Keep me burning

Instrumental:
Keep me burning
Keep me burning
Keep me burning

Chorus:
Jesus keep me
Keep me burning
Jesus keep me
Keep me burning
With the passion
That I had in my youth
Jesus keep me
Burning for You
Tag:
Jesus keep me
Burning for You
