BY FIRE

BY FIRE PSALM (Alma 5)

I know that I was baptized in
The water – like the Son –
But have I been immersed in Light –
The Spirit’s remissión?

And have I felt the mighty change
Of heart that makes us One?
Or felt to sing redeeming love –
The Angels’ perfect tongue?

I know that I was born again
From Second Death of Sin –
But am I sanctified, refined,
And set apart for Him?

And am I rid of haughtiness,
Of mocking, envy, pride?
Have I put on the Holiness
For which the Savior died?
