Lyrics

Verse 1:
Been looking for You in the still and safe
But I feel You most in the wildest place
In the chaos, the madness, in the fray
We uncover the reason
The greatest price you paid
 
Pre Chorus:
Let’s go recklessly
Where the light has ceased
With a life let go
I will let them know
 
Chorus:
You can find me with the sinners
The rebels and the dreamers
Those hidden in the darkness
A glimpse of light
Take me where it hurts the hardest
How dangerous Your love is
You can find me with the sinners
Where You gave Your life
 
Verse2:
You knelt in the sand and you drew the line
The one without sin, they could not find
For the broken, rejected and the saved
You uncovered the reason
The greatest price you paid
 
Pre Chorus:
Let’s go recklessly
Where the light has ceased
With a life let go
I will let them know
 
Chorus:
You can find me with the sinners
The rebels and the dreamers
Those hidden in the darkness
A glimpse of light
Take me where it hurts the hardest
How dangerous Your love is
You can find me with the sinners
Where You gave Your life
 
Bridge:
Take me where the hurting heart is
I hunger for the one that’s starving
Show me the one that needs you
The silenced, the see through
 
You go running out before me
I’m armored in all of your victory
To bring back Your long lost family
To the shadows, we go
 
Pre Chorus:
Recklessly
Where the light has ceased
With a life let go
I will let them know
 
Chorus:
You can find me with the sinners
The rebels and the dreamers
Those hidden in the darkness
A glimpse of light
Take me where it hurts the hardest
How dangerous Your love is
You can find me with the sinners
Where You gave Your life

Meaning & Inspiration

Rebels presents Christian mission as movement toward people who are hurting, rejected, overlooked, or hidden. The singer leaves spaces that feel controlled and safe in order to follow Christ into disorder and need. Images of light entering darkness and a life being surrendered make witness concrete: the goal is to carry news of Christ’s love where pain is most visible.

The second verse clearly recalls John 8:3-11, where Jesus responds to a woman’s accusers and challenges the one without sin to cast the first stone. That scene supports the song’s refusal to treat sinners as unreachable. Luke 15:1-2 also records Jesus welcoming sinners despite religious criticism. The bridge broadens that concern to hungry, silenced, and lost people, giving the song a strong Great Commission emphasis. Rather than celebrating rebellion for its own sake, the lyric describes costly compassion, dependence on Christ’s victory, and readiness to seek those who remain in the shadows.
