A Coal That's Burning Bright

A coal that is now burning bright
Now lights the path that I shall go
It shows me all the foes I'll fight
So I can learn and wisely grow

This coal that touched Isaiah lips
A coal that is now burning bright
Has touched my soul like heavens kiss
It's brought me from the darkness into light

No matter what my present plight
It's light has set a path that's clear to me
A coal that is now burning bright
This coal that set the captives free

This coal it is the word of God
That gives the blinded soul new sight
It is His sword and His rod
A coal that is now burning bright
