In the dark a light was creeping
Shadows cast by shame
A tongue of fire was calling out my name
I found no rest 'til all was taken
Burned up in the flames
With nothing left, I saw what I became

It took the fire to save my soul
It took the fire to change me
Glory shown in the ashes blowing away
It took the fire to save my soul
It took the fire to change me
Glory shown in the ashes blowing away

Look upon the morning breaking
Up beyond the trees
What once was lost now brings me to my knees
All hail to the fire maker
Who takes back my grief
Wash my hands
And still my disbelief

It took the fire to save my soul
It took the fire to change me
Glory shown in the ashes blowing away
It took the fire to save my soul
It took the fire to change me
Glory shown in the ashes blowing away
