For impurities drip, drip in refiner’s fire.
His character made known from such crucifixion.
All that you are is within His jurisdiction,
In silence, He speaks of what is to transpire.
Despise not the furnace of holy affliction.
To say His love’s absent; a true contradiction.
Be still, beloved, you remain His desire.
His character made known from such crucifixion.
Be cleansed from all sin and its purposed constriction.
You will not be consumed and you will not expire.
Despise not the furnace of holy affliction.
Surrender your all; less the gripe, less restriction.
From acts of obedience come lives that inspire.
His character made known from such crucifixion.
Emerge from the kiln with a powerful diction,
Sing a new song; Praise the Lord as a one man choir.
Despise not the furnace of holy affliction.
His character made known from such crucifixion.

I am a newbie around here and a beginner also, so not sure of the correct terminology, but suggest you double space when changing to each point? Or maybe that is how this poetry is suppose to me?
