"Then I said, I will not make mention of Him, nor speak any more in His name. But His Word was in mine heart, as a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary with forebearing, and I could not stay". (Jeremiah 20:9).
Sometimes I think it might be best
To just withhold what I would say,
To give my rhetoric a rest,
And let the world have its way.
But then the fire in me burned
As I began to count the cost.
So many things that had learned
Were not for me, but for the lost.
How shall I keep this fire contained
That burns within my soul?
I'll simply do as I've been trained,
And give the Lord control.
