Verse 1
My hope is in you, I sit in silence
My face is covered in dust, I offer my cheek to be struck
I have seen the affliction of The Lord
And it is good to wait quietly for the reward
I learn from you, I learn from you
Chorus 1
Put into the fire, To become something higher
Than what I can be, In only prosperity
Your goodness means discipline for me
Every hardship a chance for victory
You refine me
Verse 2
As a community we’ve seen trouble and pain
But this is not because of your disdain
Other gospels say you’ve left us
But I know, because you’ve said so, You’re right here with
us
We learn from you, We learn from you
Chorus 2
Put into the fire, To become something higher
Than what we can be, In only prosperity
Your discipleship means discipline for us
Every hardship a chance for something glorious
You refine us
Bridge1
Untethered to anything but you
We are stammering into someplace new
With your goodness and love in view
We cling to you, it’s all we have left to do
Chorus 2
Put into the fire, To become something higher
Than what we can be, In only prosperity
Your discipleship means discipline for us
Every hardship a chance for something glorious
You refine us
Bridge 2
I would rather be crushed than deny you
I would rather live as an outsider on Earth
Than be left out of relationship with you
I cling to you, it’s all I have left to do
Chorus 1
Put into the fire, To become something higher
Than what I can be, In only prosperity
Your goodness means discipline for me
Every hardship a chance for victory
You refine me
Based on Lamentations 3 and Hebrews 12.
