1 O Love that gave itself for me,
Help me to love and live like Thee;
And kindle in this heart of mine
The passion fire of love divine.

Chorus:
O Love divine, O Love divine
Revive this longing heart of mine;
And kindle in me from above
The living fire of heavenly love.

2 Set all my ransomed powers on fire,
Give me the love that naught can tire;
And kindle in this heart of mine
The living fire of zeal divine. [Chorus]

3 O Holy Ghost, for Thee I cry;
Baptise with power from on high;
And kindle in this heart of mine
The living fire of power divine. [Chorus]

4 Help me to pray till all my soul
Shall move and bend at Thy control;
And kindle in this heart of mine
The living fire of prayer divine. [Chorus]
