I HAVE COME TO BRING FIRE TO THE EARTH
TO BURN AWAY THE DROSS OF SIN
INCINERATE THE RESIDUE OF SIN
TO DESTROY SIN
AND ITS CLUTCHES
I WAIT EAGERLY TO STRIKE THE MATCH
BUT FIRST THERE ARE DUES TO PAY
I MUST BE OVERWHELMED BY SIN AND DEATH
MY HUMAN SIDE MUST GO TO THE END AND BEYOND
I MUST BE PLUNGED INTO THE PIT
I MUST GO TO THE LAND OF SHADES
AND THERE BUST THE GATES OF HELL
SET CAPTIVES FREE
I THINK FOR ENGLISH SPEAKING CHRISTIANS
THE LITERAL TRANSLATION OF THE GREEK WORD BAPTISMA
INTO BAPTISM
SIGNIFIES SACRAMENT BY WATER
A CLEANSING
BUT WHAT WE HAVE HERE IS A BAPTISM OF BLOOD
WE HAVE BEEN WASHED IN THAT BLOOD
WE HAVE BEEN RANSOMED AT GREAT PRICE
CHRIST KNOWS THE PRICE OF DISCIPLESHIP
IF FOR NOTHING ELSE EXCEPT I SAVED YOU
I MUST BE FIRST
I ACCEPT NO OTHER RIVALS
NO OTHER IDOLS
MONEY
SEX
POWER
NO OTHER IDOLS
THE CHOICE HAS BEEN MADE FOR YOU
IF YOU CHOOSE ME
AT THE CROSS ROADS YOU FOLLOW ME
NO MATTER WHAT SIREN LURES
CALL FROM THE OTHER PATH
I AM THE LORD YOUR GOD
YOU SHALL NOT PUT OTHER GODS BEFORE ME
FRANK A VOLLMER
