"Into the Flame," by Jason Hackwith
Why did I reject Your love, why did I corrupt Your song?
Lord, plunge me into the fire
I cannot keep from singing, Lord lift my spirit higher
CHORUS:
Into the flame I will go
Until every trace of the life I used to know
Is burned away, refined into silver
Burned away, refined into gold
Make me pure, O Lord I want to go
Into the flame
I never thought I'd learn to love again
I never thought my heart could feel Your gentle touch again
But now my soul is on fire
I cannot keep from singing, Lord lift my spirit higher
(CHORUS)
OPTIONAL TAG (Spoken, from Psalm 51):
Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy loving-kindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. For I acknowledge my transgressions, and my sin is ever before me. Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy Holy Spirit from me. Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free Spirit. O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall sing aloud of thy righteousness!
(REPEAT CHORUS)
