Fire Lyrics

By: Sami Yusuf

Peace be with you my brother, my friend
Come join me at the fire, once again
It bears no judgement, shame or pride
It warms from every side
Its light is lost without your eyes
Come join me at the fire

Peace be with you my sister, my friend
The fire’s waiting for you to come again
When you need comfort from tears you’ve cried
It dances by your side
It needs a partner, so dry your eyes
Come join me at the fire

Let it burn your troubles, clear your mind
Watch these embers, sparks will fly
Let it draw you closer, guide your soul
Free your struggle in ash and smoke
As one with others in search of truth
Sisters, brothers, it waits for you
Find your place at the fire, my friends

Peace be with you my brother, my friend
Peace be with you my sister, my friend
Come join me at the fire, once again
Come join me at the fire, once again

Fire:
Throughout history humankind has always been drawn to fire; it provides warmth, protection and a place to gather. It is the a symbol of community where ‘it warms from every side’ regardless of who we are or what we do. The Fire has a meditative quality where we can gather our thoughts, talk to our friends & make new ones. Even the most solitary journeys require the help of others at times and The Fire is a place where we can find that help.
