More of You and less of me.

When this song cycled through my iPod 2 months ago, it grabbed me like I had never listened to it before.

(If it starts/stops a lot on your computer - let it play through and walk away, come back in a few minutes and then it will be loaded and should play straight through.)

I think so often, we forget - or don't want to realize - we need to be emptied.  We've gone along in our Christian lives -  happy go lucky - and when everything is good, we figure we're doing it all right.  But, God desires so much more for our lives.  No matter how long you've been a Christian - there is always more junk to get rid of.   I want Jesus to empty me and fill me with more of Him!

Holy Fire burn away,
my desire for anything
that is not of you and is of me.
I want more of you and less of me.

Holy Fire burn away,
my desire for anything
that is not of you and is of me,
I want more of you and less of me, yeah.
Empty me,
Empty me, yeah,
Fill, won't you fill me,
with you, with you, yeah.

Holy Fire, burn away,
my desire for anything
that is not of you and is of me.
I want more of you and less of me, yeah.

Empty me,
Empty me, yeah.

Fill, won't you fill me, with you, with you, empty me now.
Well won't you empty me, well won't you empty me now. repeat x2

I want more, I want more, I want more of you, Jesus.

I want more, I want more, oh.

Thank you, Jesus.

Thank you, Jesus, oh yeah,

Thank you, Jesus, yeah.

Holy Fire, Holy Fire, Holy Fire, Holy Fire.
