In the Fire

Here I am Lord –
Exposed and naked

You see every challenge
I know by faith I will make it.

This testing and trying
In the fire is hot

It’s your purpose for me
Give up – I will not

Instead I’ll lift up your name
And in the heat of the flame, I will give you praise.

I will press on until I finish this race
Through heartache and pain,
I will seek your face.

Do you see Your reflection, Lord?
If not put me back –
In the refiner’s fire – so I will have no lack.

Purge out everything that is contrary to You
Make me pure, Lord like the fresh morning dew

Here I am Lord your humble vessel –
Make me more like you.
