I’ve been on Mount Pisgah’s lofty height
And I’ve satisfied my longing heart’s desire;
For I caught a glimpse of glory bright
And my soul is burning with the fire.
O the fire is burning
yes
’tis brightly burning
O ’tis burning
burning in my soul;
O the fire is burning
yes
’tis brightly burning
O ’tis burning
burning in my soul.
I will walk with Jesus
bless His name
And to be like Him I every day aspire;
For His love is like a heav’nly flame
And my soul is burning with the fire.
I my all upon the altar lay
As I to my closet lovingly retire;
And the flame consumes while there I pray
And my soul is burning with the fire.
By faith’s eye I scan the ocean’s foam
And beyond I see the haven I desire;
There I view the beacon lights of home
And my soul is burning with the fire.
