| Refiner's Fire When the night seems too long And the pain is too strong And I want to panic and fear I need Your love to hold me, Lord Wrap Your arms around me, hold me near. Help me to lean into Your mercy and grace In my raging storm I only want to see Your face Please help me to yield in full surrender Burn my selfish desires in the fire of Your love Make me a reflection of Your love so tender. Things I hold dear are now a loss Refine me Lord, take away the dross Keep me in the fire until Your face I see Hold me in submission to the foot of Your cross So others will see more of You and less of me. Your love, Lord is a refining fire Remake me, mold me, that's my heart's desire Don't stop working on me until You see That I am all that You require Only then will I be truly free. Lord, the fire of Your love causes me pain At times I get impatient and complain Then You show me a glimpse of what You are doing And I realize in all I go through You are Sovereign. And it renews my hope so I can trust what You are doing. Marsha Jan. 2001 |
