THOU who camest from aboveBy A Collection of Hymns L.M. Leviticus vi.13 1 THOU who camest from above The pure celestial fire to impart, Kindle a flame of sacred love On the mean altar of my heart!
2 There let it for thy glory burn With inextinguishable blaze; And trembling to its source return, In humble prayer and fervent praise. 3 Jesus, confirm my heart's desire To work, and speak, and think for thee; Still let me guard the holy fire, And still stir up thy gift in me; 4 Ready for all thy perfect will, My acts of faith and love repeat, Till death thy endless mercies seal, And make the sacrifice complete.
