Love, where is your fire?
I've been sitting here smoking away
Making signals with sticks
And odd ends and bits,
But still there's no sign of a flame
Imposters have been passing,
Offering good-feeling glow
But I'm holding out
For what You are about –
An inferno that burns to the bone
Some urge me to be temperate,
Lukewarm will never do
'Cos I, I wanna blaze with You
So i'm holding my heart out to You
Holding my heart out
So I stand, handing out torches
Speaking words that are lamps to their feet
Till the tine when You come
And I'm whole and we are one
And the fire in me is complete
Some tell me to be moderate
But lukewarm will never do
'Cos I, I know I'll blaze with You
So i'm holding my heart out to You
Holding my heart out
Then a doubt comes to lie at the back of my mind
That I'll offer You me and You'd politely decline
So i hasten to mute it, I'll shout and rebuke it - "away!"
