By Thine inward consecration
Make our hearts Thy temple true ;
Let Thy bright illumination
Search our spirit through and through ;
So shall we, Thy new creation,
Strive to pay Thee worship due.
With Thy eye of love behold us ;
Our affections heavenward raise ;
Into Thine own likeness mould us
On Thy glory while we gaze.
Let Thine altar-fire enfold us
Purifying prayer and praise.
Keep Thy lamp within us burning,
With undimmed and steady ray ;
That indwelling light discerning,
May we ever near Thee stay ;
Often to that shrine returning
Through the toilsome working-day.
