Heart on Fire

I am a furious flower. I love Jesus. I love kids. I love you.

Look out your window at this big, sad world

The pathway is broken
And The signs are unclear
And I don't know the reason why You brought me here
But just because You love me the way that You do
I'm gonna walk through the valley
If You want me to

Chorus:
Cause I'm not who I was
When I took my first step
And I'm clinging to the promise You're not through with me yet
so if all of these trials bring me closer to you
Then I will go through the fire
If You want me to

It may not be the way I would have chosen
When you lead me through a world that's not my home
But You never said it would be easy
You only said I'd never go alone

So When the whole world turns against me
And I'm all by myself
And I can't hear You answer my cries for help
I'll remember the suffering Your love put You through
And I will go through the valley
If You want me to

When I cross over Jordan,
I'm gonna sing, gonna shout
I'm gonna look into Your eyes and see
You never let me down
So take me on the pathway that will lead me home to You
And I will walk through the valley
If You want me to

Yes, I will walk through the valley
If You want me to

"If You Want Me To"

    Whoa! That's almost creepy. I heard that song for the first time since it first came out (maybe five years?) about two weeks ago. I immediately bought it on iTunes, and the Lord has really been using it to minister to me! It's actually part of my latest entry, in the title.

    Just so you know- I go to church with David and found you through his blog. I'm not a creepy cyber-stalker!
