Anointing Fire

Holy One, Anointing Fire
Will You come near?

Purge and cleanse us within

These words we've often used
Then run from your Flame sent
To sift and to till

Jesus, Reigning King
You, the Anointing
Whom we disobey and grieve

Implore you now
We Your People
Come Near, Forgive

According to Your Mercy
We turn from being traitors

Our lives are not our own
We yield it all to You
Until we're tilled and sown

Holy One, Anointing Fire
Come near, again and purge
Enflame us with your Holy Fire

Break our bitterness and pride
Bring your love for
By Your Spirit we are sealed
Make us renewed
For in Your Presence
We are healed
