Author: Frederick Lucian Hosmer, 1840 - 1929 Appears in 25 hymnals Topics: The Church The House of God Lyrics: 1 O Light, from age to age the same, O ever-living Word, Here have we felt thy kindling flame, Thy voice within have heard. 2 Here holy thought and hymn and prayer Have winged the spirit’s powers, And made these walls divinely fair, Thy temple, Lord, and ours. 3 What visions rise above the years, What tender memories throng, Till each eye fills with happy tears, Each heart with happy song! 4 Vanish the mists of time and sense; They come, the loved of yore, And one encircling providence Holds all for evermore. 5 O not in vain their toil, who wrought To build faith’s freer shrine; Nor theirs, whose steadfast love and thought Have watched the fire divine. 6 Burn, holy Fire, and shine more wide! While systems rise and fall, Faith, hope, and charity abide, The heart and soul of all. Used With Tune: ST. JAMES
