Lo! we stretch our hands to Thee,
From the Father to the Son,
Let us now Thy glory see.
Refrain:
Come, oh come, Great Spirit, come!
Let the mighty deed be done;
Satisfy our souls’ desire,
See us waiting for the fire,
Waiting, waiting,
See us waiting for the fire.
2 On the altar now we lay
Soul and body, mind and will;
All the evil passions slay,
Come and ev’ry corner fill. [Refrain]
3 Now the sacrifice we make,
Though as dear as a right eye,
For our blessed Savior’s sake,
Who for us did bleed and die. [Refrain]
4 Now, by faith, the gift I claim,
Bought for me by blood Divine;
Through the all-prevailing Name,
All the promises are mine. [Refrain]

Charles W. Fry
1837 - 1882 Person Name: The late Bandmaster C. Fry Author of "Come, Thou Burning Spirit, Come!" in Hymns of Consecration and Faith Charles William Fry United Kingdom 1837-1882. Born at Alderbury, Wiltshire, England, he was a bricklayer by trade, and was ultimately a successful building contractor, but also, like his father, a versatile musician, playing the violin, cello, piano, cornet, and harmonium. He lead and orchestra and band at the Wesleyan chapel in Alderbury. A Methodist, he also helped the Christian Mission in Salisbury. When he witnessed the abuse heralded against the Salvation Army when they established their ministry in 1878, he offered to serve as bodyguard for the Salvation Army workers. The next day Fry and his three sons showed up with their weapons, consisting of two cornets, a trombone, and a small tuba, which they played, in between fighting off the trouble-makers. Their music attracted a crowd for the preachers. Thus the first Salvation Army brass band was formed, and his family band accompanied Salvation Army founder, William Booth, in evangelism campaigns. Other musicians soon accompanied the Salvation Army band, and then, when William Booth saw how effective band music was, encouraged formation of other Salvation Army bands. Fry died at Glasgow, Scotland, the year after writing his hymn.
