Holy Fire

by Tami Martindale

When I asked Christ

to come into my heart

I knew in a moment

right from the start

The peace, the joy

the love and desire

I could tell By the feeling

it was Holy Fire

The tears were hot

streaming down on my face

as I remembered the One

who took my place

Oh, the love that I felt

on that day, I was nine

that Holy Fire came

Jesus Christ was mine
