What Happens in the Furnace

Do you see the fire? Do you see the furnace burn?
The flames are leaping forward, the smoke is rising slowly
Are you ready for the heat? Do you see the tempurature rising?
It's time to walk towards the flame, close your eyes as the heat consumes you.
But do you feel alone? Don't you feel that presence, is that someone there beside you?
What is this light beside, is that your Saviour there?
Your Jesus there to hold your hand and help you through these flames
Where is the heat that should be there and why aren't your clothes in flames?
And what is this falling from your chest, the only thing that's burning up.
Where has this freedom come from, where have your strongholds gone?
Your ropes have been removed, this freedom is yours to claim
This furnace has left you untouched, it has not done what was expected.  
As you flex your muscles in this freedom remember who has freed you
Remember all the love he has and how he walks with you
So walk towards this furnace, holding your head high.
Remember who is on your side and who will stand with you
