I Saw the Fire

Went to church, one day
I saw fire, I saw fire

Seen fire (up on the roof and out of the door)
I saw fire
But there was no smoke
Air was clean so I didn't choke

The people inside were praising and singing 
In my mind  thought they were a little crazy
I saw fire
But there was no smoke
Air was clean so I didn't choke

We didn't get burn
Got a lot to learn
Cause the fire I saw was God's host
It was the holy ghost

The same fire that lit upon Jesus head
That fire that spoke to Moses
And like Jeremiah's fire shut up in his bones
 I saw fire
