Give me oil in my lamp, give me fire in my bones
Put a song in my heart and a joy in my soul
And when the night rolls in, when the feelings fade
Give me oil in my lamp till the break of day
Chorus
Jesus keep me, keep me burning
Jesus keep me, keep me burning
With the passion that I had in my youth
Jesus keep me burning for You
Verse
You’re the guide to my path, You’re a friend on this road
You’re the compass and map and I’m never alone
When the future is dark You will light the way
‘Cause You’re the oil in my lamp till the break of day
Bridge
Breathe upon the embers now
Breathe upon a heart sold out
Breathe upon a life laid down
Keep me burning
