When The Boys Light Up Lyrics lyrics

When The Boys Light Up by Newsboys

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 there’s gonna be days like this

Cause light and dark don’t coexist

How ya gonna see through this fog

How ya gonna get back on course

Ya ain’t never gonna feel the force

If ya don’t 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

We’re passing you the torch

When the boys light up, ya know

Who gets the praise who owns the show

When the boys light up, it’s on

We ain’t stopping till we’re done

We ain’t nothing but the conduits

He’s got the power, He’ll 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 band’s gonna fade away

But the boys are back for a second act

No excuses, we’re lighting fuses

You’re in the dawn of your finest hour

So get wired to the highest power

If you’re 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, it’s on

We ain’t stopping till we’re done

If we ain’t nothing but the conduits

He’s got the power, He’ll flip the switch

Leaving the dark behind

Light up and let it shine

When we walk in His footsteps

It’s 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, ya know

Who gets the praise who owns the show

When the boys light up, it’s on

We ain’t stopping till we’re done

If we ain’t nothing but the conduits

He’s got the power, He’ll 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, it’s on

We ain’t stopping till we’re done

If we ain’t nothing but the conduits

He’s got the power, He’ll flip the switch

Leaving the dark behind

Light up and let it shine
