Referencia Biblica: 1 de Timoteo 4:12, Efesios 4:1

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

Sometimes it hurts when reprimanded
It hurts Him more than it's hurtin' 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

(Coro)
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

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

A lost and dying world is dying to know
He lives
The only way they'll know what He has to give
Is when we're hit where we live

"Haz Impacto Donde Vives"

Quieres cambiar, con todas tus fuerzas.
Quieres hacer lo que esta bien ante sus ojos.
El se deleita en darte lo que deseas.
Su deseo es hacer arder tu vida.
Algunas veces duele que te corrijan,
pero a el le duele mas que a ti.
El te levantara de donde hayas caído.
Cuando el te quiebra, te da vuelta tu vida,
El va a dar vuela tu vida.

(Coro)
Haz impacto donde vives, no puedes guardártelo.
Cuando su amor te golpea, siempre lo sabrás.
Haz impacto donde vives, muy cerca de tu casa.
Cuando estas totalmente entregado, las marcas se ven.
Déjalo que el haga impacto donde vives.

La evidencia lleva a la convicción.
Cuando vivimos todo lo que decimos,
debe haber una crucifixión.
Podemos vivir muriendo todos los días.

Tienes que decirle a el que puede intentarlo.
El quiere darte con todo lo que tiene.

Un mundo perdido y moribundo se muere por saber que el vive.
La única forma en que sabrán lo que el les puede dar
es si nosotros hacemos impacto donde vivimos.

It's been 20 years since I bought Petra's "On Fire!" album... maybe 10 to 15 years since I listened to it last. Thank you for posting this. The song's message and music are as timely now as they were back then- maybe more so as I'm further down my Christian walk.

[UnknownPetraFan]

Agree. This message never gonna lost vigency.

[calv1z]

first heard this in 1987 and it still sounds good in 2009 ,,what a voice

[AmeliaJane74]

@mbryan718

I disagree, what's wrong with the Christian Rock you hear today? Have you heard of Skillet, Red, Fireflight and Flyleaf? :)

[MixedFuion]

Thrilling!!!!!!

[KhaosJr]

I always wondered what this would sound like as performed by Jessica Simpson...would've been a nice way to get back at all those Christian music producers who refused to sign her as a teenager because she was too gorgeous. So who's laughing now!?

[birdykb]

I thank God everyday that I've had the honor to witness this tour!! When I'm down.. this is the song that i turn to...

[mxrdvr]

There is only one PETRA ! ! !

[robinater]

Love this song but its begging for at least a good 45 second solo at least thats how I would have done it.

[mbryan718]

There's more message in ten seconds of this song than 90% of any "Christian Rock" you hear today. Thank you, Lord, for Petra.

[ProsperityNina]

I can't wait to play the electric guitar like that!!!! And everything for praise the lord!!! Love it... LOVE YOU JESUS!!!

[ProsperityNina]

I can wait to learn to play the electric guitar like that... and for Jesus... I can imagen... Love Jesus!!!!!!

[kirk1968]

Saw them in concert for this album, and have never forgotten it even 20 years later. Thank you for posting the song and lyrics!
