THE FIRE
Author
Unknown
Fire of separation
Fire
of sacrifice
Fire
of purifying heat
Burned
on rocky altars
Through
the ancient nights
Now
that fire’s burning deep in me
My
heart is the altar
I
am the priest
My
life’s the only sacrifice
The
sacred fire needs
Sacred
fire
Burn
your mark on me
With
your flame, brand the Name
For
everyone to see
Sacred
fire
Burn
your mark on me
I
am honored to be set apart
So
burn your ownership into my heart
Fire
of refining
Fire
of discipline
Burn
away all my impurities
Fire
of consecration
Carefully
define
The
image of the Holy One in me
I
know that I am privileged
To
bear the sacred light
So
I will lay down everything
To
keep the flame alive
