First time I saw Him
Laughter filled His eyes
The kind of man that wore
No disguise
Simple in delivery
Profound in His worth
A man attached to heaven
Instead of earth
I can see His fire each evening
Preparing for the night
Oh, God, it's Your Son I see
His words burning in me
Oh, God, how faithful He's been
And how faithful He is to me
The Keeper of the fire
An uncommon love
And uncommon desire
The Keeper of the fire
Born to bring us Sacred Fire
Look there on the mountain
Hanging on a tree
No, not Him dying
When it should be me
Three days and I'm so lonely
I return here to this tomb
Oh, God, the stone is rolled away
I hear the angels say
"Why do you search this place of death
When the Savior has risen today?"
The Keeper of the fire
An uncommon love
And uncommon desire
The Keeper of the fire
Born to bring us Sacred Fire
He was born to bring us Sacred Fire
