With Fire

Jesus showers me with fire
Not hell fire, with the stench of the underworld

But a fire that permeates my deepest longings

Jesus showers me with fire

Shelter, thick and secure
Like a homemade patchwork quilt

Jesus, shower me with fire

Like the time when the one-twenty waited
For the outpouring

Then the magic arts and spirits of the dead
Held no challenge to your message of love
and fire that spread abroad

Jesus, again
Shower us with fire
