Fire Tunnel

Went through the fire tunnel

Didn’t come out the same

Didn’t want this hurt or to hold it

Didn’t want this blame

The hands were the conduit

Yet the prayer lit my soul

My palms blazed open

The fire consumed me small

Went through this and that

This had me shook and that had me

Raging, hurting, and betrayed

Wasn’t until I did and do see it now

It’s not about my life, that’s how

The storms of my heart are calm

It’s not about me, it’s about Him—

His life—how He overcame it all

This fire blazes tunnels of light

And darkness cannot stand it

Neither can hate stand love

So let the fire burn it up

Who am I when I trip or run

From the truth of the altars

Forging me into His Love

Burned my sacrifice to Him

My selfish desires and ambition

The thoughts that keep me wishing

And the past that tells me

Different about what I choose

And who I am, well it tries

Hoping for me to relate, it lies

I choose to be and believe

His Word and as I laid there

His Love burned it all

The branches and the oak

That were lingering like thorns

A forest in my mind

The lusts of this world

My passions keeping score

Like wild golden poison

A field in my heart

Disbelief and fear

His Love burned it all

The thorns

The lusts

The passions

The fields

Fire filled

Tunnel

Fire filled

Life

I yield

“At the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, Elijah the prophet approached [the altar] and said, ‘O Lord, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel (Jacob), let it be known today that You are God in Israel and that I am Your servant and that I have done all these things at Your word. Answer me, O Lord, answer me, so that this people may know that You, O Lord, are God, and that You have turned their hearts back [to You].’ Then the fire of the Lord fell and consumed the burnt offering and the wood, and even the stones and the dust; it also licked up the water in the trench. When all the people saw it, they fell face downward; and they said, ‘The Lord, He is God! The Lord, He is God!’”
