Walk With Me


Fire, walk with me
For I have lost my way
Light the path and set me free
Keep me through the day

 

Stay when I'm alone at night
And darkest clouds grow near
Guide me through without my sight
Until the skies are clear

 

Flame, keep my soul alive
My mind is dead and gone
When I through deep oceans dive
Split the wave like golden dawn

 

Fire don't try to keep my spirits high
Just keep my bones aglow
Let the sun pass right on by
Keep me from the dark below

 

Flame, listen to my prayer
Fire, hear my plea
Shield my heart from dead despair
And stay to walk with me.
