Text:

The fire burns deep within my bones,

The Spirit won’t let me rest,

I’ll witness God’s name, His truth to proclaim,

That others may also be blessed.

The fire burns deep within my bones,

Let me sing with heav’nly choirs,

With anthems of praise, My voice I’ll now raise,

Glorifying God’s infinite power.

I’ll let my voice be heard,

As His will is made known,

I’ll not flinch or slide, From Him I won’t hide,

For the fire burns deep within my bones.

The Spirit’s full of glory and light,

For all sins the Redeemer atones,

Through mercy and grace, Through cov’nant and faith,

His fire burns deep within my bones.
