“A burning and a shining light.” John 5. 35

1 O bless thy servant, dearest Lord,
  While he shall preach thy gospel word;
  May he declare delightful things,
  Touching the glorious King of kings.

2 O grant him bright celestial views,
  While he proclaims the gospel news;
  With fiery zeal his soul inflame,
  While he exalts the bleeding Lamb.

3 Give him clear light, and burning love;
  Shower down thy blessings from above;
  O may we hear the Saviour’s voice,
  And in his precious name rejoice.
