Keep the incense burning

1
“Keep the incense burning”
  On the altar fire;
Let thy heart’s petition,
  Let thy deep desire,
Be a cloud of incense
  Wreathing God’s own throne,
Till His will among us
  Shall be fully done.
2
“Keep the incense burning”
  On the altar fire;
Feed the flame, Lord Jesus,
  Till Thy whole desire
Shall in us, Thy children,
  Find free course, and be
Breathed through lips anointed
  For this ministry.
3
“Keep the incense burning”
  Though thy faith be weak;
Though in words thou canst not
  All thy longing speak;
Silent heart-petitions,
  Spirit-taught, will be
Gloriously answered;
  Wrought by God for thee.
4
“Keep the incense burning,”
  Hourly let it rise,
Till from opened heavens,
  Till from flame-swept skies,
Fire shall fall and kindle
  All hearts to a flame;
Making us a glory
  To our Savior’s name.
