Of my loving Christ.
If my own desires
Blest are the men of peace­ful life,
Lo, millions perishing daily in pain!
Christ is born in Beth­le­hem!
In everything give thanks.
I have found life’s Giver, and the Prince of Life;
And glow­ing warm in the mid­day sky.
Kindling the noon­day’s fie­ry beams.
Fit tem­ples of Thy grace di­vine.
Who earth and hell su­bdued,
Vain, wretch­ed man, whose fond de­sire
O’er all in bless­èd show­ers;
His soft, warm Spirit spreads throughout,
A fount­ain spark­ling free;
A flame may be fanned;
A flame may be fanned;
For rea­son’s light di­vine,
In all my daily walk,
Of fruit­less la­bors e’er com­plain;

Quench

But take heed to say,
Remind me to fan it again.
They shall be called the heirs of bliss,
Count not possessions:
Shadows, ye may melt away!
Do not despise prophecies,
He, my living bread, became my daily meat;
The wast­ing fev­er of the heart;
From pas­sion’s heat pre­serve our life,
But still with soft­est breath­ings stir,
Thro’ our Re­deem­er’s blood.
Or teach it will not al­ways last,
And crush hell’s ev­il pow­ers.
Jesus is the all-inclusive love.
No spring like this for me!
The Lord is at hand.
The Lord is at hand.
Where God had bid it shine.
I now to You draw nigh;
This ham­mer nev­er strike in vain.
