Smoke

"Where there's smoke...there's fire
And the fire...is here
It's time, time to awaken
Time to wake up and realize the fire is here
That all that we've hoped for and wanted is near.
It's nearer than we thought
And we're getting closer than we ought
And then...
With the burning of a bush
And the speaking of a name
Nothing in this world would be the same
You see the smoke that was a calling to take off his shoes,
Would set us all up to have everything to lose.
And as the shadow was revealed by the Son
We were able to come,
And not only some,
But we all, we all can come.
And bring my best, put my fat on the alter,
Send Your fire Lord,
Consume me Father!
Cause You've got me, and me is all I've got,
But You've got me Lord, I know I'm not a lot
And that's all You need to make it happen,
A listening heart paired with passion
Because we know the Truth and it's time to start
And if I want His hands, I must have His heart
They cannot separate, be taken apart
Then it gets good, and change isn't far...

Where there's smoke, there's fire
Where there's fire...there's God.
And if God is what I desire
What more do I require?
To get up and move, move away from my past
Time to choose my flag, and nail it to the mast
No more backing down, I'm ready at last.
I want the fire from heaven, want more than my seven
Friends to know me, the me that is real
The me that I feel
When I'm in Your presence
Sending up a sweet fragrance.
The gates open wide,
Lord open up the heaven's...cause
You've got me...
You've got me...
You've got me!"
