refiner’s fire, our baptism, of God
stepping from the ashes, alive
walking on this path
Rising from the dust
up from the waters, a phoenix
walking by faith, reborn
a new creation in Christ
We are the seed, gifts
at the same time the sower
given to the world
to share the joy of Christ
Rising up, we are reborn
up from the depths
the ashes below us
on wings to the heights.
