Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Thirty-seven kids on a good day
In a fellowship hall on a Wednesday
That's where I met God in a big way
All the church kids said, "Amen"
Praise band played a little out of tune
Same old songs, it was nothing new
But God showed up in that little room
All the church kids said, "Amen"
[Chorus]
We were hearts on fire for Jesus
We were hands up high in the air
We were sold-out, all-in believers
And I don't know about you
But I could use a little going back to church kids
[Verse 2]
Well, the world don't know how to slow down
I'm a few more miles down the road now
There's a lot I still gotta figure out
Even church kids gotta grow up
Who says that flame's gotta burn out?
Who says my faith's gotta run out?
Oh, I can tell you right now
This church kid's still showing up
[Chorus]
We were hearts on fire for Jesus
We were hands up high in the air
We were sold-out, all-in believers
And I don't know about you
But I could use a little going back to church kids
(Church kids)
[Bridge]
This little light of mine
I'm gonna, I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine
All the church kids said, "Amen" (Amen)
This little light of mine
I'm gonna, I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine
All the church kids said, "Amen" (Amen)
[Chorus]
We were hearts on fire for Jesus (For Jesus)
We were hands up high in the air (Up high in the air)
We were sold-out, all-in believers (All-in believers)
And I don't know about you (Know about you)
But I could use a little going back to church kids
[Outro]
This little light of mine
I'm gonna, I'm gonna let it shine (I could use a little going back)
Church kids
This little light of mine
I'm gonna, I'm gonna let it shine (Back to)
Church kids
