I want to be your friend,
One who will sit and hear your words
I want to walk with you
Down this lonely, narrow road
But god, you know my weak estate;
You know how i need your hand of grace
To come and pull me up to where you are
Chorus:
I wanna stay close to the fire in your eyes,
To the burnings of your heart
I don't wanna grow cold
So come and set your seal of love upon my heart,
Love as strong as death
Till i'm forever yours
I wanna be found in the council of the lord
With a heart that's after yours
I don't wanna grow cold
So come and set your seal of love upon my heart,
Love as strong as death
Till i'm forever yours
All-consuming fire of love, come burn away what hinders love
Till i am only, only yours, till i am only, till i am only yours
