Living Fire
by Frances Drost

Album: Under the Big Blue Sky

Each day my life seemed like a painting
Filled with colorful design
I could fake it on the outside
But my colors were fading with time
One day I heard a preacher say
The words that cut me like a knife
A pretty picture of a fire never warmed one single life

I sought the Lord with burning tears
Looking back across the year
How I longed to know His presence
Feel His touch and hear His voice
Then as clear as night and day
I recalled the scriptures say
If you ask me for some bread
I'll never give you stones instead

So make my life a living fire
Filled with You as my desire
Consumed with only You alone
Lord I no longer am my own

Now this lesson I have learned
Though my heart for Him still yearns
I don't want to be a picture
Filled with colorful designs
I just want to be the real thing
Warming every single life
And if you share this same desire
I know He'll make you living fire
