Now Johnny took a trip to Brazil
|
To spread the truth, to preach what is real.
|
When he got back home he had such a fire,
|
But just a month later he lost his desire.
|
Now the world was calling, he couldn't miss out.
|
Closed his Bible and he started to doubt.
|
He ditched all his Christian friends
|
And he went back to the worldly trends.
|
He said, "Why can't we keep it?
|
Our quiet times and relationships?
|
Why do we fall away so fast?
|
We gotta fight the fight, day by day and night by night.
|
That's the only way we're going to last. We're gonna last."
|
Now all through the summer, Jill was for real.
|
Well, she had a fire that no one could steal.
|
And then school started. Got back to the clique,
|
Lost her faith so darn quick.
|
Well at first ya know she tried to keep it.
|
It was too hard she just couldn't do it.
|
Closed her Bible, went back to the crowd
|
As her quiet time fell to the ground.
|
She said "Why can't we keep it?
|
Our quiet times and relationships?
|
Why do we fall away so fast?
|
We gotta fight the fight, day by day and night by night.
|
That's the only way we're going to last. We're gonna last."
|
Can't warm ourselves with the crowd. Can't put our Bibles down.
|
Why can't we keep it? Our quiet times and relationships?
|
Why do we fall away so fast?
|
We gotta fight the fight, day by day and night by night.
|
That's the only way we're going to last
