Verse 1:
Well tell me what I need. How do I succeed? How should I proceed so my sores don’t bleed?
Daddy, hear my cry. Do I live or do I die? Will I sink or will I fly? Know the truth or know the lie? Deep down I know you’re real, and I know you know the deal. Why do I live like I live, why do I feel like I feel? I thought I knew the way; I thought that it was day. But once again I find that I’m wrong, Lord teach me how to pray? Yes God I need your help, no I ain’t looking for no more trouble. And when you give me what I need, Lord if you will, give me a double. No, I ain’t trying to be greedy, but I can’t stay up in this dark. Give me some light, illumination; I don’t even care, make it a spark. I need your word up in my life, like everyday that I might live. And right now that’s all I’ve got, but all I’ve got to you I’ll give. Only hear my heart’s desire; will you please take me higher? Flood my whole life with your Spirit, and burn that devil up with your, with your …

Chorus:
Fire: Holy Ghost fi mash up the place. Fire: fi make you run and finish up your race. Fire: fi your firm foundation. Fire: fi burn up Babylon and Satan. Fire: fi give you whole heap a zing. Fire: fi make you jump up and thing. Fire: in a your belly everyday. Fire: fi make the devil run away …

Verse 2:
I feel it burning in my soul, deep down inside. So go ahead n let it flow, baby boy; let it ride. From my head to my toes, here; take my whole life. There’ll be no struggle, nor strife. Cause see you’ve got me feeling right. I’ll surrender to your will and to your way, everyday. And when I slip, or fall short, Lord draw me back; like right away. I want to be with you forever, “no doubt,” way up in the sky. I can’t go back, before I do; Sir, will you please let me die. Hold my hand, Father God; guide me and lead me in your path. I’ve had a taste of your chastisement, but I ain’t trying to taste your wrath. I couldn’t handle it. For sure your love has brought me to my knees. You’ve been my shelter and my rock; you’ve kept my flesh from STDs. Dear God, I love you, I need you; can’t live my life without you. Take your Spirit away from me, and I know that I’d be through. But in my weakness you’re made strong so Sir. I’m leaning on your shoulder. And once again you’ll bring me through, no doubt; I know you’ll take me over. With your …

Chorus:

Bridge:
The Fire, Him hot; but yet the fire cool! What a something, the Fire teach you like a school! Follow the golden rule; love your neighbor like you love yourself. That your days may be long, your body strong; in a good health. Jah-Jah’s Word say so, and if it say; so it a go. Him can’t lie, If Jah-Jah give you, tell me; who can deny. Cause nothing can test the True Champion. So make them try, the Fire strong; burn them like Babylon. Unnu better read and research, no bother act before you think. You no want fi get clog up like some old dutty sink. Go down pan your knees and beg God in a your life. And make Him cut you up and down with His Two-edged knife. You naw go die, you a go live; but your flesh, him a go dead. You have fi kill him so the inner man can rise up instead. Me a go tell you who you need, and a Him me a talk. Cause only Him can help you walk, and tear down the dark. Him a the …
