Burning Bright For Our Day

Burning bright for our day

We've the Gift of the Holy Ghost

Through the priesthood it is laid

Upon those baptized, it is bestowed

To show our change of heart

There are covenants we must make

And for our new life to start

We must weekly then re-partake

We've Christ's name and His spirit

And we've learned of Him much thus

We must be worthy to hear and bear it

We must strive to be like Jesus

The opportunity has been laid

For the greatest down to the least

To enter the gate, Christ has paid

And there is much on which to feast

The Holy Ghost will guide and teach

We're so blessed that in us it dwells

For deep in our hearts, it can reach

And from just one small seed it then swells
