Purified by Fire

As His sacrifice, living
Must be holy, and pure
For we dare not present
If defiled, and impure.

So, heed a big warning
Given all we’ve received
Invest well, for our Master
Don’t hide it, deceived.

So lay aside, our excuses
And false ‘religious’ façade
Come humbly and repent
Seek transformation, from God.

And so, love not the world
Nor selfishness, greed
Seek God’s glory alone
Let His Spirit, always lead.

The LORD gives, and He takes
He rules, as He will
He is sovereign, all powerful
So be quiet, and still.

Our motives so matter
To take, or to give
Self-serving, or God’s glory
For what do we live?

Our Master Craftsman ceases not
With skillful hands of love
To weave our lives, to that of Christ
Sat glorified above.

How great is our God
Our triumphant King
Let all heaven shout
His praises loud sing.

For what are you grasping
And groping in life
Is it riches and comfort
Success, without strife?

Control and compel me
Conform me to Christ
Consume all the dross
His blood has sufficed.
