Lyrics
5200 N Shadeland Ave Lawrence United Methodist Church
The church the church the church is on fire. We don’t need no water let the Holy Spirit burn.
Probably don’t need to tell yall, but the church aint the halls and walls
And I got a feeling it aint the building, but instead it’s the peoples
Cancel the emergency call you made and the bucket brigade
Were on fire for the Lord and we gonna let this thing blaze
We got a gospel praise service at 11 a.m. for one hour
Hearts be thumping, sparks be jumping from the strength of God’s power
Come grab a seat and feel the heat, but your close might get seared
Come check us out, see what we bought. We have church up in here.
Lawrence United Methodist Church on the North East Side
But we got a 4-alarm fire that can be seen county wide
The church the church the church is on fire. We don’t need no water let the Holy Spirit burn. Burn Holy Sprit Burn.
It started in the pulpit and ran to the pew
It all got loose when people spread the good news
The good news to your heart is like gas to a spark
Either way you go, you know we gonna light up the dark
The foundation shook with the force of the blast
Like the phoenix, the church we will rise reborn from the ash
It won’t be contained, it cannot be tamed
And it will never go out cuz God is fanning the flames
It’s the refiners fire, that Holy Ghost desire
We’re on fire for the Lord. Help me sing it out choir
