Tune:[O would you be a blessing true]
Composer:J. E. Williams

39. Don't Let Your Light Burn Low

1 O would you be a blessing true,
As on through life you go?
Be constant in God's service here,
Don't let your light burn low.

Refrain:
Don't let your light burn low,
Don't let your light burn low;
Be constant in God's service here,
Don't let your light burn low.

2 The world is groping in despair,
God's love they do not know,
So live to guide them to the right,
Don't let your light burn low. [Refrain]

3 The loving Saviour needs your aid,
In letting sinners know,
Salvation's free, who will may come,
Don't let your light burn low. [Refrain]
