Shining, burning, we are yearning

Shining, Burning

 

Shining, burning, we are yearning

For the source of the flame

For the worldís only light

Burning shining-We are finding

All our desires and delight.

 

I would burn with a blazing heat

Of the fire that dwelled on theÝ arkís mercy seat

I would burn as a pillar ofÝ light

That pierces the darkness -overshadows the night.

 

Shining burning, we are learning

When weíre caught by the flame

We become the true light

Burning, shining we are finding

All of our shadowed made bright

 

We would burn with a holy heat

That will render us pure

And will make us complete

We would shine with a radiant light

That will show all the world

The power of His might.

 

Shining, burning, we are yearning

For the source of the flame

For the worldís only light

Burning shining-We are finding

All our desires and delight.

All of our hopes burning bright..
