verse1

C
On the outside I was trying
G
On the inside I was dying, Lord
Dm
Must we live our life as two?
G
When will I become One with You.

chorus
F C
I was baptized by the fire
G AM
Here I am now God-inspired
F C G C
Burnt to ash the tensions of my past
F G C
I pray this new found freedom’s gonna last - Lord make it last


verse2


As a child I was open and so clear
In time I felt life’s pain and fear
I saw it in the eyes of those I knew
When loving You was all I’d want to do

chorus
I was baptized by the fire
Here I am now God-inspired
Burnt to ash the tensions of my past
I pray this new found freedom’s gonna last - Lord make it last


verse3

I tried so hard Lord to make the grade
From the outside looking in I had it made
But it’d been a long time since I prayed
Bored and lonely soon my smile would fade.

chorus
I was baptized by the fire
Here I am now God-inspired
Burnt to ash the tensions of my past
I pray this new found freedom’s gonna last - Lord make it last

verse4

I was making all my loved ones proud
But the Call from Him was getting loud
I had to search for what I wasn’t sure
But in the Holy Land I found my cure.

chorus
I was baptized by the fire
Here I am now God-inspired
Burnt to ash the tensions of my past
I pray this new found freedom’s gonna last - Lord make it last





verse5
On the outside I was trying
On the inside I was dying, Lord
Must we live our life as two?
Now I know that I am One with You.
Yes I have become One with You.
Thanks be to God I am One with You.

chorus
I was baptized by the fire
Here I am now God-inspired
Burnt to ash the tensions of my past
I pray this new found freedom’s gonna last - Lord make it last
