Holy Flame

This song is about the church being a light to the world. It is not enough that we be good evangelists. We need to demonstrate to love of God to a needy world.

¹⁴“You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. ¹⁵Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. ¹⁶In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.
Matthew 5:14-16 (ESV)

This is another song I introduced while at Fellowship Bible Church. This is the first song I wrote that required two parts, though in this version I am doing both parts myself.
