Forged In the Fire
It is written:
God said He was a consuming fire
My words are pure
They were forged in the fire
Hard reproof was the anvil
they were shaped on
The words sheathed in my mouth
are like a two-edged sword
If you worship idols,
a mortal cut will be your reward
My words were forged strong
by the intense heat of the fire
They were tempered hard
in cooling waters of righteous desire
Passion was the hammer,
reproof was the anvil
that created this sharp instrument of truth
My words are pure
They were forged in the fire
Be very afraid,
fear exceedingly too ---
if ever I have to wield
this weapon against you
Dedicated to my beloved father
His words taught me the Word of God
