O Thou, Whose Glory Shone Like Fire

lyricist: George Warburton, 1904
Composer: From Schumann, 1839

O Thou

whose glo­ry shone like fire

Within the an­cient tem­ple walls

Grant us our heart’s sin­cere de­sire:

Thy pre­sence in these sac­red halls.

O Thou

who

home­less

wan­dered wide

Through far Ju­dea’s fa­vored land

Make this a home for men

and guide

The steps of all with Thy strong hand.

O Thou

who sor­row­ing in the night

Longed for the love of hu­man friend

Make here a spring of friend­ship bright

With Thy rich love that knows no end.

O Thou

whose life and words were one

Strong

man­ly

ho­ly and di­vine;

Here may our fel­low men be shown

How they may live a life like Thine.
