Prayer to The Fire Within

Oh, my Master and my King!

Before my very eyes

You turned my heart into stone! ...

A brilliant, sparkling crystal cluster,

Each point aflame with the

Searing Fire of Your Love.

Angelic Beings took my ears,

Implanting melodies from celestial realms

Deep within my Being.

My Soul leapt into the River of Fire

Dancing across the flaming points,

Utterly consumed yet not burned

By Your Great Love.

Oh, Sweet Majesty!

To know such ecstasy and sublime bliss!

You are to be praised and adored forever!

Consume me until there is nothing left

But the melody.

Sing in me and through me.

When You sing me,

Let the world see only Your Flame!
