I
I'VE LIVED A SO-SO LIFE
THAT ALLOWED FOR MANY A STRIFE
MY CHRISTIAN LIFE HAS BEEN FAR FROM COMPLETE
I WOULD SO EASILY TIRE
AND SIT DOWN BY THE FIRE
BUT NOW I FIND HE'S TURNING UP THE HEAT
CHORUS
THERE'LL BE NO COMPROMISING
THE TEMPERATURE IS RISING
THE HEAT IS GETTING HIGHER
HE'S TURNING UP THE FIRE
I'M HOMESICK FOR THAT HEAVEN SWEET
I MUST ARISE GET ON MY FEET
FOR EVEN NOW HE'S TURNING UP THE HEAT
II
SO OFF I GO A RUNNING
EACH HURDLE OVERCOMING
I'M NOT CONTENT TO JUST PULL UP A SEAT
AND DO WHAT I DESIRE
MY FEET ARE TO THE FIRE
AND EVEN NOW HE'S TURNING UP THE HEAT
