Song Lyrics
I beg for a passion
Lord, for a soul that thirsts for You
I cry with a longing
Lord, for endurance that holds true
‘Cause it’s only natural for me to be afraid of the flames
But I am praying just the same
Hold me in the fire
Until I burn
With a heat that consumes all of me
Ignite me by the light of Your glory
Tune this heart to one desire
Until I burn
So work this within me
Lord, for a will that bows to You
I call out of my fear
Lord, for the courage to pursue
‘Cause it’s only natural for me to run away from the pain
But I am asking just the same
Hold me in the fire
Until I burn
With a heat that consumes all of me
Ignite me by the light of Your glory
Tune this heart to one desire
Until I burn
Purify me
Lord, let the ashes fall away
Pour grace on me
Lord, give me the strength to stay
Oh, part of me wants to run
But I know You’ve just begun
And so for every day
Let this be what I pray
Hold me in the fire
Until I burn
With a heat that consumes all of me
Ignite me by the light of Your glory
Tune this heart to one desire
Until I burn
