Refine
Refine: A Spiritual Fire, Crafting Gold from the Soul
Lyrics
My heart longs for the holy
Expressing a deep desire for a connection with the holy.
To reflect the One who made me whole
Desiring to mirror the divine completeness received.
I throw off the things that hinder
Discarding obstacles that hinder spiritual growth.
Laying everything before Your throne
Surrendering everything before the divine presence.
Refine me Lord
Petitioning the Lord for refinement.
Take the silver to the fire
Symbolizing a willingness to undergo refining processes.
Refine me Lord
Reiterating the plea for divine refinement.
Test me true
Asking to be tested genuinely by the Lord.
Refine me Lord
Continuing the request for spiritual refinement.
The purest gold is melted
Drawing a parallel between refining gold and spiritual purification.
Until only You
Stating that only the divine should remain after purification.
Remain
Affirming the desire for the divine to be the sole essence.
Search me Lord and know me
Inviting the Lord to examine and understand the inner self.
Weigh my anxious thoughts, my tainted mind
Requesting examination of thoughts and mind for renewal.
Come renew me with Your fire
Seeking spiritual rejuvenation through divine fire.
Build a temple where You find delight
Asking for the creation of a sacred space where the divine finds joy.
Refine me Lord
Repeating the plea for refinement.
Take the silver to the fire
Reiterating the symbolism of refining silver in spiritual terms.

Strip it away if it's not of You
Advocating removal of anything not aligned with the divine.

Search my heart where faith is proved
Examining the heart where faith is tested and proven.
