Face down in the dust
I was the rust of a river gone dry
Blown in the gust of a listless cry
Maybe you heard it
Cause you came in a rush
Call it a crush, but in the caustic light
You swallowed me up into the softest fire
You came to me perfect
Well I came to worship
I'm preaching to the (Fire) flame
I'm begging for the (Fire) pain
You're showing me the (Fire) way
This holy fire's rolling again (Amen)
And I must confess
That all of my best moves are selfish ones
Show the method of your selfless tongue
Give me a sermon
Cause I came to be blessed
Hand to my chest, I would forsake this life
Slip out of your dress and let your legs decide
Make me your servant
Holy diversion
Oh, on my knees
Into the dust returning
I'm born again a virgin
Love, come ruin me
I'm preaching to the (Fire) flame
I'm begging for the (Fire) pain
You're showing me the (Fire) way
Come make this sinner a saint (Oh-oh)
And I'm holding back the (Fire) rain
So cold until you (Fire) came
Now I'm burning up with (Fire) faith
This holy fire's calling my name (Oh-oh)
Oh Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Good lord, I'm preaching to the (Fire)
And I'm begging for the (Fire)
Cause you're showing me the (Fire) way
Till only fire (Fire) remains
And I'm preaching to the (Fire) flame
I'm begging for the (Fire) pain
You're showing me the (Fire) way
Come make this sinner a saint (Oh-oh)
And I'm holding back the (Fire) rain
So cold until you (Fire) came
Now I'm burning up with (Fire) faith
This holy fire's rolling again (Oh, Amen)
