Story behind the song
marc came to me and the plaids a few weeks ago with this tune and was looking for some help with the lyrics...the Lord led me to the verses about elijah in the bible talking about finding God in a still small voice....i wrote down the place mentally and a few nights ago tried to start penning the lyrics and felt the Lord tell me to back up a few verses...when i got to the chorus to start i still tried to make still small voice fit and seemed to stay at Send Your Fire....
Lyrics
Send Your Fire
V1
There on Carmel he called to God on high.
For heavens fire they heard the prophet cry.
That they would know You’re the Lord of them,
Come and burn the sacrifice. Turn our hearts to You again.
Chorus 1
Send Your fire, falling down; consume the sacrifice!
Send Your fire, falling down; consume the sacrifice!
Send Your fire, falling down; consume the sacrifice!
Send Your fire, Lord! Send Your fire, Lord! Send Your fire, Lord!
V2
I hear the Father. He’s calling from on high.
Says, Call for holy fire. Let it be your hearts cry.
That you would know Me. Let Me come cleanse your sin.
I’ll burn the sacrifice; turn your hearts to Me again. I’ll…
Chorus 2
Send the fire, falling down; consume the sacrifice!
Send the fire, falling down; consume the sacrifice!
Send the fire, falling down; consume the sacrifice!
Send Your fire, Lord! Send Your fire, Lord! Send Your fire, Lord!
