the cry of my heart...

"i come into this place, burning to receive your peace. i come with my own chains, for wars i fought for my own selfish gain. You're my God and my Father, i've accepted your Son. but my soul feels so empty now, what have i become? Lord, come with your fire, burn my desires, refine me. Lord, my will has deceived me, please come and free me, refine me.  my heart can't see when i only look at me. my soul can't hear, when i only think of my own fears. and they are gone in a moment, your forever the same. why did i look away from you, how can i speak your name? Lord, come with your fire, burn my desires, refine me. Lord my will has deceived me, come and free me, refine me. come rescue this child, for i long to be reconciled to You. it's all i can do, to give my heart and soul to you and pray. refine me. "
