Vouchsafe our frozen hearts to move;
With ardor strong these breasts inflame
To all that own a Savior's name.
2 Still let the heavenly fire endure
Fervent and vigorous, true and pure:
Let every heart and every hand
Join in the dear fraternal band.
3 Celestial dove, descend, and bring
The smiling blessings on thy wing:
And make us taste those sweets below
Which in the blissful mansions grow.Topics: Graces of the Spirit Love to the Brethren; Love To the brethren unfeignedScripture: 1 Peter 1:22Languages: English
