OH SWEET HEAVENLY FIRE
OH sweet heavenly fire
OH Holy refining flame
You my passion and desire
Make me never again the same!
Burn out the foul dross
Of my besetting sin
Remove all my loss
Make me thine again!
OH sweet flame of love
Ignite my yearning heart
And from realms above
Your Holy passion impart!
Wound me as thou must
Oh Lamb wounded for me
And my flesh mortally thrust
On Calvary’s bloody tree!
As the master the slave will be
A vessel broken and poured
A precious ointment to thee
A wonder of your precious Word!
Make me meek as my Lord
Tho sobbing be my breath
Touch me with thy mighty sword
And conform me to thy death!
Sorrow and grief my way may be
The valley of Baca my keep
Yet every tear drop you do see
Shall be a spring of joy to me!
Weeping is but for the night
Joy comes with the sun
Strength to strength by your might
We like hinds in heights do run!
OH sweet Heavenly fire
OH Holy refining flame
You my passion and desire
Make me never again the same!
Be the first to react on this!
