The rush inside seems quite unreal
You feel you’ve left the ground
You change so much at first you feel
As though you’re Heaven bound
You can’t sit still, no need to sleep
You seem to friends quite odd
Your heart’s so full you long to leap
Straight in the arms of God
I’m saved! I’m saved! You leap and cry
Your thoughts are full of love
In Christ you feel you want to die
And join Him high above
But life in Christ has just begun
We’ve just received the sword
Battles must first be fought and won
Before we join our Lord
Yet deep inside like butterflies
You’re vibrant, full of zest
No matter how the devil tries
Sweet joy pulsates your breast
You seek the bible night and day
It’s always close at hand
You find you have a lot to say
Yet don’t quite understand
You want to sing, you want to shout
Go out and tell the earth
That’s what salvation’s all about
Thank God for second birth
My love of God has not grown cold
Joy’s bubble hasn’t burst
Though years have passed, now grey and old
Yet still for Christ I thirst.
