steven curtis chapman – burn the ships lyrics
in the spring of 1519 a spanish fleet set sail
cortez told his sailors this mission must not fail
on the eastern sh-r- of mexico they landed with great dreams
but the hardships of the new world make them restless and weak
quietly they whispered, “let’s sail back to the life we knew”
but the one who led them there was saying
chorus
burn the ships, we’re here to stay
there’s no way we could go back
now that we’ve come this far by faith
burn the ships, we’ve p-ssed the point of no return
our life is here
so let the ships burn
in the spring of new beginnings a searching heart set sail
looking for a new life and a love that would not fail
on the sh-r-s of grace and mercy we landed with great joy
but an enemy was waiting to steal, kill, and destroy
quietly he whispers, “go back to the life you know”
but the one who led us here is saying
(chorus)
bridge
n-body said it would be easy
but the one who brought us here
is never gonna leave us alone
(chorus)
