Purpose in Pain

Does God have a purpose
In suffering and pain
Sorrow and sickness
Can He turn to gain?

Purified by Fire

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

Lay All on the Altar

Offer all, at His altar
Our bodies, He purchased
As living sacrifices, holy
Well pleasing… our service.

Being a Living Sacrifice

Yes, only when emptied
And dead to our self
The Holy Spirit, can fill us
Bring new life, and breath.
