Luke 12:35
The lights are burning in the homes of all who worship Christ.
They glow a warmer welcome for the hallowed Sacrificed.
No dozy fireside for dotards is this choicest flame,
but a sturdy blaze a savage world to clearly tame!
So let our loins be girded as we take this Light without
to all the earth that nations may rejoice and sing and shout.
For such a Light cannot remain within our hearts today;
it must be shared with others, making darkness flee away!
Like the lightning bolt that rips across the purple sky
is Salvation come to all who heed the soft reply:
"Rejected and exploited though my light may often be --
it shines to lead the unmixed heart directly back to me!"
