\nHow the flames become a flicker, and faith a brilliant disguise
\nOur Sundays become a holiday, they’re an empty exercise
\nAnd the cost of real devotion seems so foreign to my life<\/em><\/p>\n
\nOh, to gladly risk it all, oh\u00c2\u00a0 to be faithful to His call
\nAbandoned to grace yet anchored in His love
\nLiving dangerously in the hands of God<\/em><\/p>\n
\nThough the storms may rage around me in His love I stand secure
\nSo let me live like I believe it, and though my faith is prone to fail
\nThough I cower under trial, by His grace I shall prevail<\/em><\/p>\n
\ncomfort zone into a life of complete surrender to the cross.\u00c2\u00a0 To live
\ndangerously as not to live recklessly but righteously.\u00c2\u00a0 And it is
\nbecause of God’s radical grace for us that we can risk living a life of
\nradical obedience for Him.<\/em><\/p>\n
\nYou’ve got to walk on though it costs you everything
\nYou’ve got to pray on<\/em><\/p>\n
\nthat He may strongly support those whose hearts are completely His.<\/em><\/p>\n
\n…Living dangerously
\nAre you living dangerously
\nOh we ought to be living dangerously in the hands of God
\n\u00c2\u00a0
