By A Collection of Hymns

      8-7s.
      1 LIGHT of life, seraphic fire,
      Love divine, thyself impart;
      Every fainting soul inspire,
      Shine in every drooping heart!
      Every mournful sinner cheer,
      Scatter all our guilty gloom,
      Son of God, appear, appear!
      To thy human temples come.

      2 Come in this accepted hour;
      Bring thy heavenly kingdom in!
      Fill us with the glorious power,
      Rooting out the seeds of sin;
      Nothing more can we require,
      We will covet nothing less;
      Be thou all our heart's desire,
      All our joy, and all our peace
