Flames!


Flames

Snatch me from the fire
God Jesus
Snatch me from the fire
Lifting higher,
Higher
Threatening to drown
My life
I scream
I cry
Even I writhe
Flames of
Pain, chaos
Broken world

Until
One gentle touch
One saving hand
Upon my shoulder
Falls
Lightly my name
I hear You call
Drawing me away
So,
Within your arms
May I stay
Given strength
Out of the fire to crawl
No longer my frail self
Dare they attempt to maul

Do not be afraid of those
Flames of pain
Follow Christ's gentle
Touch
Even though to endure
Flames can be
Extremely rough
But
You will be allowed
With only one soft word
One glance
To enter the eternity
The safety
Of Christ's embrace
And the joy of His
Paradise's dance!
