Burning Love

Burning within my heart,
yearning to see and touch,
Jesus my Lord and Saviour,
of whom I love so much!

He lives within my heart,
so I never walk alone,
I burn to kneel at His feet,
by the glory of His throne.

Shinning the love He's given,
for the whole world to see,
I pray His fire will burn,
their chains to set them free.

Jesus gives me freedom,
I've never known before.
Don't you know He's waiting,
knocking at your door?

For He awaits your answer,
to His beckon in your ear,
faith comes by His Word,
but the truth, you first must hear.

Let your heart open wide,
invite Him in to stay,
and this burning I feel,
will light and guide your way.

Then you will know,
why I yearn to touch and see,
my loving Lord and Saviour,
who lives inside of me!
