Into The Fire

The sky was falling and

streaked with blood

I heard you calling me,

then you disappeared

into the dust

up the stairs, into the fire

up the stairs, into the fire

I need your kiss, but love

and duty called

you someplace higher

somewhere up the stairs

into the fire



May your strength

give us strength

May your faith give us faith

may your hope give us hope

may your love give us love

may your strength

give us strength

may your faith give us faith

may your hope give us hope

may your love bring us love



you gave your love to see,

in fields of red and

autumn brown

you gave your love

to me and lay your

young body down

up the stairs into the fire

up the stairs into the fire

i need you near, but love

and duty called you

somplace higher

somewhere up the

stairs, into the fire



May your strength

give us strength

May your faith give us faith

may your hope give us hope

may your love give us love

may your strength

give us strength

may your faith give us faith

may your hope give us hope

may your love bring us love

may your strength

give us strength

may your faith give us faith

may your hope give us hope

may your love bring us love



it was dark, too dark

to see, you hold me

in the light you gave

you lay your hand on me

then walked into the darkness

of your smoky grave

up the stairs

into the fire

up the stairs

into the fire

i need your kiss, but love

and duty called

you someplace higher

somewhere up

the stairs, into the fire



May your strength give us strength

may your faith give us faith

may your hope give us hope

may your love bring us love....



May your love bring us love
