O, let us exalt our dear Lord and proclaim,
In songs of true gratitude, praise to His name!
As songs of the angels in sweetest accord,
Our thanks and our praises shall rise to the Lord.

Lyrics
O that Thy ardent flames were kindled,
Unfathomable depth of love!
May all the universe acknowledge
That Thou art King and Lord above.

Already it doth burn with brightness;
See here and there in west and east,
To Thee the Lamb as ransom offered,
A glorious pentecosttal feast.

And still this heav'nly spark igniteth
So many cold and lifeless hearts;
It fills the longing soul with gladness
And heals from sin and Satan's darts.

All selfesteem and pride destroying,
Removes impure and guilty stain;
The streams of Jesus' love enjoying,
By which we God's rich grace obtain.

Thou never ceasing, living fountain,
Almighty witness, ever true,
Thy grace and love may not be wasted,
Inflame our hearts with love anew!

O link together what has scattered,
Complete Thy temple! keep Thy vows!
Illuminate with sacred brightness
The holy church, Thy Father's house!

Revive, inflame, redeem, enlighten
Ere long all peoples through Thy word;
Appear to ev'ry tribe and nation
As Saviour, Prince of Peace, and Lord!

Then from the lips of countless numbers
The songs of Jubilee will flow;
Thy fame shall sound from ev'ry region
And all the ransomed saints will glow.
