Burn The Ships

Burn The Ships - Steven Curtis Chapman (斯蒂文-柯蒂斯-查普曼)

In the spring of 1519

A Spanish fleet set sail

Cortez told his sailors

This mission must not fail

On the eastern shore of Mexico

They landed with great dreams

But the hardships of the new life

Made them restless and weak

Quietly they whisper

Let's sail back to the life we knew

But the one who led them there was saying

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 passed the point of no return

Our life is here so let the ships burn

Let 'em 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 shores of grace and mercy

It landed with great joy

But the enemy was waiting

To steal kill and destroy

Quietly he whispered

Sail back to the life you know

But the one who led us here was saying

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 passed the point of no return

Our life is here so let the ships burn

Let 'em burn

Burn the ships

We're here to stay

There's no way we could go back now that

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 passed the point of no return

Our life is here so let the ships burn

Let 'em burn

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 passed the point of no return

Our life is here so let the ships burn

Let 'em burn
