Let Your Fire Burn
by Susan H Fouts
Give me the grace to die
And to give up all my rights
To seek the good for others,
Holy Father.
Oh, Jesus, be formed in me
Let this temple contain all of thee
Let it not be my will but thine,
Oh, Lord divine
Oh, Lord divine.
Let Your fire burn
Till there's nothing left of me.
Let the wind of Your Spirit
Blow the ashes to the sea
And there's nothing left of me
But only Thee.
Consume me with Your love
And Your fire in my heart.
Let it burn up the old man
Till there doesn't remain a part
Oh, give me the grace to die
My self life to crucify.
With Your Spirit living here,
You will cast away all fear
Let Your fire burn
Till there's nothing left of me
Let the wind of Your Spirit
Blow the ashes to the sea
And there's nothing left of me
But only Thee.
