What if my flame has gone out, O God?
How can I reignite it?
I try to relight myself,
I strike matches,
I rub sticks together,
I find the driest wood,
And the tiniest timber,
I blow and blow,
But still I remain unlit,
Cold and worn by the world.
But then I realize,
I can never do this by myself,
It is you who must light the fire within.
Give me your spirit that I may burn for you.
Amen.
