oh Lord . please light the fire .

oh lord your beautiful
your face is all i seek
and when your eyes are on this child
your grace abounds to me

i wanna take your word and shine it all around
first help me just to live it Lord
and when im doing well help me to never seek a crown
for my reward is giving glory to you

oh lord please light the fire
that once burned bright and clear
replace the lamp of my first love
that burns with holy fear

when you seek the Lord he will answer. no matter where your at or the point in your life.. he is there.. i was seeking God tonight.. just wanting to worship and love him and this song popped into my head. i listened to the Jesus culture version but then was reminded of who wrote it..keith green.. who i highly respect and is known for His passion and love for Jesus.

this song spoke to me in incredible ways. the Lord is soo beautiful.. He sees me as His child and a child that needs so much of His grace everyday. His grace does abound to me. i want to live His word first and foremost.. i need to live it.. and be able to shine His light all around

i have gone through different phases in my walk .. sometimes we have to step back in order to step forward and i know that is what is going on with me.

'and when im doing well help me to never seek a crown'.. i dont want to seek honor.. i dont want to seek a crown in what i am doing for God .. i want to do it solely for HIm and Him alone.. giving the glory back to him.

oh lord please light the fire .. that once burned bright and clear... replace the lamp of my first love.. that burns with holy fire..

that is my prayer.
