with all Thy quickening powers;
kindle a flame of sacred love

from vanities and toys,
then shall we with fresh courage go
to reach eternal joys.
3 Awake our souls to joyful songs;
let pure devotion rise,
till praise employs our thankful tongues,
and doubt forever dies.

with all Thy quickening powers;
come, shed abroad the Savior’s love,
and that shall kindle ours.

He has had for years the superintendence of a large Baptist Sunday School in Cincinnati, Ohio, where he resides.
