If time were ever to wear you away

And circumstance should bind me

If age should bring a dark night on my soul

If fear and doubt should bind me



Please stir my heart

Take me back to the fire

And bring to me recollections of joy

And renew my first desire



If pains and trials come to me

And I cannot stand strong

If fools adjust my theories

To believe your truth is wrong



Please stir my heart

Take me back to the fire

And bring to me recollections of joy

And renew my first desire



I swear it will never happen to me

But how I can I know

For Peter swore the same to thee

Oh, hear the cock crow



Please stir my heart

Take me back to the fire

And bring to me recollections of joy

And renew my first desire



Please stir my heart

Take me back to the fire

Ooh
