The Light Bearers
Fan into flame the gift of God
2 Timothy 1:6
Humanity’s heart held captive
Groaned for release
Incarcerated within utter darkness
The memory of welcoming fire and flame
The fellowship with light
Now distant memories
Hopelessness and resignation
The only companions of a reluctant heart
Groaned for release
Incarcerated within utter darkness
The memory of welcoming fire and flame
The fellowship with light
Now distant memories
Hopelessness and resignation
The only companions of a reluctant heart
Redeeming light
battered the prison walls
Invading, encompassing, enveloping
Called forth the captives
Melted their shackles
Placing living embers within each clay vessel,
The breath of His Spirit fanned coals into flame
Kindled by His lasting truth
Fragile containers entrusted
To carry His luminance
To those yearning for redemption.
