His Lamps"

His lamps are we.
To shine where He may say.
And lamps are not tor sunny rooms
Nor ior the light OF day.
But Tor dark places OF the earth.
Where shame and wrong and crime
have BIRTH
Or for the muSky twilight gray.
Where wandering sheep have gone
astray;
Or where the light OF faith grows dim
And souls are cropping after Him.
And as sometimes flame we find,
Clear shining through the night,
So bright we do not see the lamp,
But only see the light,
So may we shine-His light the fame
That men may glorify His name!
