Poem: The Flame of the Almighty
        by Ramona Lorraine  (rldenton@Writing.Com)
The Flame of the Almighty

Ever nearer I am drawn
Toward the Flame of the Almighty
Never does His Flame go out
And it will undo me

I hasten toward the Flame
Ever toward Him who is Holy
I cannot look away from His glory
Nor can I behold it

Ever does it burn my heart and renew my soul
So I wander ever closer
As I tremble with fear and joy
For apart from Him, I can find no rest
