Not My Fire.

I turn the pages of your Word,
Feeling the weight of it's knowledge and I wonder,
Do I really want to know?
Do I want to understand?
Or forever dive into the bliss of ignorance,
Where I can always say I don't know better.
But I know better,
Without trying I know,
Your words are written on my heart before it even started beating.

So it's natural for me to fear,
The knowledge of your Word when you have already thought me so much,
And I have already felt the responsibility of choices.

I turn the pages of your Word,
And you say,
That the fire was made for the devil and his angles,
And I feel it then,
I know,
That that fate was never meant to be mine,
If you had it your way we'd all be saved,
The fire isn't mine.
