It's by our mingled spirit, Lord,

|
| 1. | It's by our mingled spirit, Lord, |
| | That we can shine with Thee, |
| | And be a golden lampstand now |
| | For all the world to see. |
| | It's not by forms or rituals, |
| | Mere Christianity; |
| | It's by our Christ enjoying as life |
| | We all can shine with Thee. |
| 2. | The burning Christ has feet as brass |
| | Which in the furnace burns, |
| | His eyes are as a flame of fire- |
| | 'Tis to this Christ we turn! |
| | How could we ever lukewarm be |
| | When on His face we gaze? |
| | O Lord, we give ourselves to You |
| | To set us all ablaze! |
| 3. | The seven golden lampstands in |
| | The seven cities see, |
| | So burning, shining with this Christ, |
| | It's God's economy! |
| | We're absolute that this become |
| | Our full reality |
| | Upon the earth, within the church |
| | In each locality. |
