Installing in my heart desire
from wickedness to save my soul,
refine me, my Lord, with fire
to fit your purposes and goal.
I am your daughter and your servant,
I want to glorify your name.
Oh let the Spirit pure, fervent
burn in my heart a sacred flame!
Turn into cinder worldly sorrow,
burn down envy, pride, and greed/
Provide assurance for tomorrow
by giving everything I need.
Your Spirit heals my soul's pain,
ignites compassion, love and care,
helps always in You remain
and saves me from the devil's snare.
