EMBERS
There was a fire within our hearts,
When we first met You,
With flames of deepest red and gold,
Consuming through and through,
But time went by, our passion died,
And the flames they disappeared,
But still we have the embers,
So banish all our fears,
Forgive us Lord,
For we have sinned,
Forgive us Lord.
All the opportunities,
You give us from day to day,
Because of our inhibitions,
We throw them all away,
To speak for You, what does it take?
A little faith for Jesus' sake,
But still we have the embers here,
So fan the flames and douse our fears,
Forgive us Lord,
For we have sinned,
Forgive us Lord.
A church on fire for You,
Is all I can see in my mind,
So open our eyes Lord and let us see,
For Lord we all are so blind,
So let Your Spirit move through us,
Let us realise,
All the things that You could do,
If only we'd open our eyes,
So kindle that fire within our hearts,
Just like it was when we first met You,
With those flames of deepest red and gold,
A burning passion deep rooted in You,
Uplift us Lord,
By Your power,
Uplift us Lord.
