lyrics

Each day I tend the flame, hey hey
A candle in your name
It bears my hopes and pain
Until it drowns in fire

There’s set before you , hey hey
Reach out your hand to choose
It will be given you
Water or fire

Oh it burns, hey hey
But it won’t burn down
The world it turns
But it won’t turn around

May my heart obey, hey hey
Make corrections
There’s guilt he takes away
And guilt I’ve been protecting

Friend of God, hey hey
Won’t you pray for me
Friend of God, hey hey
I’m on my knees

We cannot taste your blood, hey
Shed by fire of love
As we draw near to you
Clothe us in fire

You consume our soul, hey hey
Anoint our wounds with oil
And let your charity
Be our one desire

Friend of God, hey hey
Won’t you pray for me
Friend of God, hey hey
I’m on my knees

Oh it burns, hey hey
But it won’t burn down
The world it turns
But it won’t turn around
