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 I love I'm not ashamed of the gospel I'm not ashamed of the one I love
There were times in my barreness When I felt your pure affection And you heard my frail petitions To serve you endlessly But have I loved the tree they put you on? Or my friend who met me at the cross? Thank you Oh I want to sing again for my brother And find my way down this mountain, yeah And find my way again
I'm not ashamed of the gospel I'm not ashamed of the one I love I love, I'm not ashamed. Hanging on! I'm not ashamed of the gospel I'm not ashamed of the one I love Ooh, I'm not ashamed no more
(I'm not ashamed of the gospel) I'm not ashamed (I'm not ashamed of the one I love) I love I'm not ashamed of you, hey I'm not ashamed of the gospel I'm not ashamed of the one I love
I'm not ashamed anymore Cos I've felt the oil pour down over me And there's a fire that's burning within me now It's burning stronger It's burning stronger It's burning much stronger Ooh, I can feel it's burning much stronger now For you, only for you [incomprehensible]
Heyey! La-la-la-la-la... Heeey!
I'm not ashamed. Here we go! Here we go! Here we go! I'm not ashamed of the gospel I'm not ashamed of the one I love I love, I'm not ahamed. Hanging on! I'm not ashamed of the gospel I'm not ashamed of the one I love We will pray! We're not ashamed! Here we go!
