The Fire And The Flood
by Debbie Rempel & Derek McCorkell - Copyright © Debbie Rempel 2003

Verse 1
You put me through the fire,Lord,I came out singed,
Smelling like a smokestack,from my soul to my skin,
It started as a spark Lord found my dross and then caught hold,
Burning all my stubble leaving you the solid gold,
Once I thought that all was lost,I did not understand,
You held me,through the fire,in the hollow of your hand.

Chorus

So come the fire,come the flood,
I am safe,inside God's love,
I will not be set ablaze,
I will not be swept away,
I'll grow in faith,
Come the fire,come the flood.

Verse 2

You put me through the flood Lord,I sure got wet,
I prayed for it to stop Lord,but it rained more instead,
I tried to tell my friends,but I think that they all drowned,
You became my harbour,Lord,my rock my higher ground.
Once I thought that all was lost,I did not understand,
You held me through the flood,in the hollow of your hand.

Chorus

Bridge

Child of God,this is what your Lord says,
"I've redeemed you,I have called you by your name,
You are precious in my sight,I adore you,
You are mine,so don't ever be afraid."

Chorus 2 times & end
