I am refined by your love
Caressing my heart and soul
It soothes me
And brings a smile to my lips
Sweet deep sighs fill my breast
Your cool waters quench my thirst
At times you allow the flames to grow high
Testing my faith in you
Trying to avoid fear and doubt
I turn further toward you
And allow your love
To fall around me like a blanket
Covering me and protecting me
Trusting you
I become a mirror to the world
Reflecting the light of your love
So brightly... it burns the eyes of those who gaze upon it
And once seen
Its purity and brilliance is never forgotten
Its heat so sweltering
It in turn refines each that has viewed it
And their hearts are caressed
A smile is brought to their lips
Sweet deep sighs fill their breast
Each soul is filled to overflowing
Creating a rippling effect
So powerful
The waves could lap the shore of eternity
