CLEANSING FIRE

Immerse me in Your Sacred Wounds
light my darkness with Your fire,
burn all that is impurity
create in me, but one desire.

To say yes to God the Father
to obey His perfect Son,
Spirit fill me with Your gifts
so we may be as one.

In perfect love, the driving force
to turn all wrongs to right,
to trust and not to worry
keep Him always in my sight.

In faith, I wait upon the Lord
all His promises to keep,
to practice patience, and to persevere
ever humble, ever meek.
