The Fire (Acoustic Song)

The Lord gave me these songs at a time when my hands were much better with a rifle than with a guitar.

Songs about the love of Jesus.

His peace.

His mercy.

Given to someone who, once, wanted to watch the world burn.

Lyrics:
The Fire

E, E, E, C/G
There’s a fire in me
The one you cannot see
And when your tongue comes around
I feel like burning it down

C, D, E
But Lord has told me to love my enemies
And pray for those who persecute me
And turn the other cheek when they strike me
And so that’s what I am gonna do
I will put out that fire for you

E, E, E, C/G
When the war at the door
You can no longer ignore
Is it faith or your fears
That will reflect in your tears

C, D, E
For Lord has told us, remain unwavering
And in His grace we’ll find the peace
When war is raging, and heart is suffering
The Lord is hearing all our pleas
And so I’m praying on my knees
Relieve Your servant, Lord…

And yet…

The Lord put a guitar in my hands.

Again and again, reminding me that this fire burns for Him…

And not against my enemies.
