"The Fire"
Where has it gone? Where is the fire?
That wonderous zeal I once perspired
That glow inside like heaven's kiss
Lord, tell me how it got to this?
I used to muse upon your Word
I had a quenchless thirst for more
I don't know where my thoughts are now
I've lost sight of that stable shore
Oh, scarcely can I catch my breath!
I'm gaining back my fear of Death.
I once was free of that dark fear,
But my resolve has disappeared.
Lord, bring me back to you once more!
And kill the Me that I abhor
Bring it back with deafening speed
Your Holy Spirit, I'm in need!
Revive in me a holy roar!
And christen now my very core!
You'll finish every work you start
Reclaim me now, redeem my heart
The tears are streaming down my face
I'm craving strong your endless grace
Let me make up the time that's passed
My Lord, I'll be with You at last!
