Come, Jesus, Lord, with holy fire,
|
|
| 1. | Come, Jesus, Lord, with holy fire, |
| | Come, and my quickened heart inspire, |
| | My conscience purged by blood; |
| | Now to my soul Thyself reveal, |
| | Thy mighty working let me feel, |
| | Since I am born of God. |
| 2. | Let nothing now my heart divide, |
| | Since with Thee I am crucified, |
| | And live to God in Thee. |
| | Dead to the world and all its toys, |
| | Its idle pomp and fading joys, |
| | Jesus, my glory be. |
| 3. | Now with a quenchless thirst inspire, |
| | A longing, infinite desire, |
| | And fill my craving heart. |
| | Less than Thyself, oh, do not give, |
| | In might Thyself within me live; |
| | Come, all Thou hast and art. |
| 4. | My will be swallowed up in Thee, |
| | Light in Thy light still may I see |
| | In Thine unclouded face: |
| | Called the full strength of trust to prove, |
| | Let all my quickened heart be love, |
| | My spotless life be praise. |
