Lyrics: "Let the Lower Lights Be Burning"
1. Brightly beams our Father’s mercyFrom His lighthouse evermore;But to us He gives the keepingOf the lights along the shore.
(Refrain) Let the lower lights be burning!Send a gleam across the wave!Some poor fainting, struggling seamanYou 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 seaman, tempest-tossed,Trying now to make the harbor,In the darkness may be lost. (Refrain)
