XLVII.

[Kindler of seraphic fire]

Kindler of seraphic fire
Glowing in Thy hosts above,
Giver of the pure desire,
Spirit of celestial love,
Heavenly love to us impart,
Comfort every drooping heart.
If Thou hast a token given,
If our want of love we feel,
Bless us with that taste of heaven,
Pardon on our conscience seal;
Then with cordial charity,
Gracious God, we cleave to Thee.
Then, because Thou first hast loved,
We shall love our God again,
Happy, till from earth removed,
Joy consummate we obtain,
Dazzled with the glorious sight,
Lost in an abyss of light.
