The Collection
Fever
[Verse 1]
I was singing by the river
Waiting for my troubles to be gone
And You were coming through the speakers
Sliding down my ears and played their drums
And I was sick with holy fever
Burning up with blankets and with love
And You will love me like a mother
Cooling me with freezing baptisms

[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
It seems that I had struggled
Oh so long to say Your name without some fear
Of finding out Your name was nothing more
Than just a name to make things clear
But then You give Your hands to me
And I have seen Your side and touched the holes
The holes that spell forgiveness
In fewer letters than I could ever be told

[Chorus]
But if I am a sinner
Then I've got Paul in my sights
'Cause we have both been living
With unspoken thorns in our sights
But then You take those thorns out and wear them all as a crown
Oh, things had changed the moment You came down
[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
Call to me, You call to me
In disbelief I fall flat on my face
The countless times that You've caught me
Is never as surprising as the chase
So bind my heart in dirty rags
And tie them to the place You call Your home
And I will walk forever with You
You will be the only place I roam
