When The Boys Light Up

Newsboys - Light Up

When the boys light up, light up
When the boys light up, light up
When the boys light up, light up

Back and forth like a daytime drama
Up and down like a yo-yo mama
Say theres gonna be days like this
Cause light and dark dont coexist

How ya gonna see through this fog
How ya gonna get back on course
Ya aint never gonna feel the force
If ya dont connect to a power source
Cause ya been swapping out day for night
But ya see a lamp light burning bright
If ya get your flip-flops off the porch
Were passing you the torch

When the boys light up, ya know
Who gets the praise who owns the show
When the boys light up, its on
We aint stopping till were done
We aint nothing but the conduits
Hes got the power, Hell flip the switch
Leaving the dark behind
Light up and let it shine

When the boys light up, light up
When the boys light up, light up

I was feeling all overcome
Had a faith gone dim and then some
Gotta call from a band of brothers
Turn the mic on, flash the Nikons
All the doubters, I heard them say,
Now the bands gonna fade away
But the boys are back for a second act
No excuses, were lighting fuses
Youre in the dawn of your finest hour
So get wired to the highest power
If youre down pick any sight
Get ready to ignite

When the boys light up, ya know
Who gets the praise who owns the show
When the boys light up, its on
Weaint stopping till were done
If we aint nothing but the conduits
Hes got the power, Hell flip the switch
Leaving the dark behind
Light up and let it shine

When we walk in His footsteps
Its a brighter day
When we follow His word
He lights the way
When we lift up His banner
and raise it high
We light up the sky

When the boys light up, light up
When the boys light up, light up
When the boys light up, light up

When the boys light up, ya know
Who gets the praise who owns the show
When the boys light up, its on
We aint stopping till were done
If we aint nothing but the conduits
Hes got the power, Hell flip the switch
Leaving the dark behind

When the boys light up, ya know
Who gets the praise who owns the show
When the boys light up, its on
We aint stopping till were done
If we aint nothing but the conduits
Hes got the power, Hell flip the switch
Leaving the dark behind
Light up and let it shine
