Fogo no Altar

Fire on the Altar

One day, on Mount Carmel
An event like no other
Took place between the prophet Elijah
And the prophets of Baal
Who were four hundred and fifty against Elijah
But the true God
Elijah knew

Fire on the altar
Gotta have fire on the altar
To burn the sacrifice
In the name of Jehovah
Gotta have fire on the altar
Gotta have fire on the altar
To burn the sacrifice
In the name of Jehovah

The sacrifice he made
With wood to burn
For it was necessary
To call on the true God
And the God who answered
With fire to their pleas
This God would be
The true God

Fire on the altar
Gotta have fire on the altar
To burn the sacrifice
In the name of Jehovah
Gotta have fire on the altar
Gotta have fire on the altar
To burn the sacrifice
In the name of Jehovah

The prophets of Baal, then
Screamed in agony
Cried out all day long
But Baal didn’t respond
Elijah then said to them
Maybe he’s just asleep?
Perhaps he’s traveling
That’s why he can’t hear

Fire on the altar
Gotta have fire on the altar
To burn the sacrifice
In the name of Jehovah
Gotta have fire on the altar
Gotta have fire on the altar
To burn the sacrifice
In the name of Jehovah

Elijah raised his hands
And began to pray
Asking for an answer
In the name of Jehovah
At that very moment
A miracle occurred
Elijah asked for fire
And the fire from heaven came down

Fire on the altar
Gotta have fire on the altar
To burn the sacrifice
In the name of Jehovah
Gotta have fire on the altar
Gotta have fire on the altar
To burn the sacrifice
In the name of Jehovah

Fire on the altar
Gotta have fire on the altar
To burn the sacrifice
In the name of Jehovah
Gotta have fire on the altar
Gotta have fire on the altar
To burn the sacrifice
In the name of Jehovah

Fire on the altar
Gotta have fire on the altar
To burn the sacrifice
In the name of Jehovah
Gotta have fire on the altar
Gotta have fire on the altar
To burn the sacrifice
In the name of Jehovah
