Text: | O Thou whose glory shone like fire |
Author: | George A. Warburton |
Tune: | SOLOTHURN |
1 O Thou whose glory shone like fire,
Within the ancient Temple walls,
Grant us our heart's sincere desire:
Thy presence in these sacred halls.
2 O Thou who, homeless, wandered wide,
Through far Judea's favored land,
Make this a home for men, and guide
The steps of all with Thy strong hand.
3 O Thou who, sorrowing in the night,
Longed for the love of human friend,
Make here a spring of friendship bright
With Thy rich love that knows no end.
4 O Thou whose life and words were one,
Strong, manly, holy, and divine,
Here may our fellow men be shown
How all may live a life like Thine.
Amen.
