Song Lyrics

"Hit You Where You Live"

by Petra
Album: Petra Means Rock

You want to change with all of your might,
You want to do right in his sight,
It's his delight to give you your desire,
It's his desire to set your life on fire.

You know what I'm talking about,
Hey, on fire.

Sometimes it hurts when reprimanded; it hurts him more than it's hurting you,
He'll pick you up from where you landed,
When he knocks you down, turns your life around,
He'll turn your life around.

Hit you where you live, you can't hold it back,
When you're struck by his love you will know,
Hit you where you live, it's so close to home,
When you're all sold out, the mark will show,
Let him hit you where you live, whoa.

The evidence leads to conviction when we don't live everything we say,
There's got to be a crucifixion,
We can live dying everyday,
You've got to tell him he's free to take a shot,
He wants to hit you with everything he's got.

Hit you where you live, you can't hold it back,
When you're struck by his love you will know, (you will know)
Hit you where you live, it's so close to home,
When you're all sold out, the mark will show,
Let him hit you where you live.

A lost and dying world is dying to know, (to know he lives)
The only way they'll know what he has to give is when we're hit where we live.

Hit you where you live, you can't hold it back,
When you're struck by his love you will know, (you will know)
Hit you where you live, it's so close to home,
When you're all sold out, the mark will show,
Let him hit you where you live, whoa.

Oh, on fire,
Oh, on fire.
