Fan The Flame

orchidee



Tune: Bemerton or Boundary

('Glory be to Jesus')

********

Keep the flame still burning

To your Lord still sing

Bring Him tributes, offerings

Give to Him good things

 

For you are redeeméd

He your living head

Saved from sin and restored

Unto Him your Lord

 

He will give fair graces

Enlighten faces

Meditate a while here

Promote godly fear

 

I will hear His voice for

He shall speak clear, pure

Turning from distractions

We His daughters, sons

 

Look, a light shall shine now

Lord, help us see how

You are guiding, keeping

Us, your our Lord, King

 

For there no salvation

Among each nation

Except through Jesus sure

Saviour evermore

      That light is always there, some just do not want to see it.

            Thanks Brian. I'll help, with others, to keep the home fires burning in the UK when you pop over to NZ!

            Orchi,
            Glad you’re keeping that Flame burning!
            A fine hymn/poem indeed!

              Thanks Laura. It's OK if no-one chucks a bucket of water over it. What am I doing keeping fires going in (UK) heatwave?! Well, it's been bit rainy lately. We're due to 'cook' again in a few days again though.
