Author: Philip P. Bliss Hymnal: The Hymnal of The Evangelical United Brethren Church #290 (1957) Meter: 8.7.8.7 with refrain Refrain First Line: Let the lower lights be burning! Lyrics: 1 Brightly beams our Father’s mercy
From His lighthouse evermore,
But to us He gives the keeping
Of the lights along the shore.
Refrain:
Let the lower lights be burning!
Send a gleam across the wave!
Some poor fainting, struggling seaman
You may rescue, you may save.
2 Dark the night of sin has settled,
Loud the angry billows roar;
Eager eyes are watching, longing,
For the lights along the shore. [Refrain]
3 Trim your feeble lamp, my brother;
Some poor sailor, tempest-tossed,
Trying now to make the harbor,
In the darkness may be lost. [Refrain] Scripture: Matthew 5:14-16 Tune Title: LOWER LIGHTS
Brightly Beams Our Father's Mercy
