I’ve been on Mount Pis­gah’s lof­ty height,
And I’ve sa­tis­fied my long­ing heart’s de­sire;
For I caught a glimpse of glo­ry bright,
And my soul is burn­ing with the fire.

Refrain

O the fire is burn­ing, yes, ’tis bright­ly burn­ing,
O ’tis burn­ing, burn­ing in my soul;
O the fire is burn­ing, yes, ’tis bright­ly burn­ing,
O ’tis burn­ing, burn­ing in my soul.

I will walk with Je­sus, bless His name,
And to be like Him I ev­ery day as­pire;
For His love is like a heav’n­ly flame,
And my soul is burn­ing with the fire.

Refrain

I my all up­on the al­tar lay,
As I to my clo­set lov­ing­ly re­tire;
And the flame con­sumes while there I pray,
And my soul is burn­ing with the fire.

Refrain

By faith’s eye I scan the ocean’s foam,
And be­yond I see the ha­ven I de­sire;
There I view the bea­con lights of home,
And my soul is burn­ing with the fire.
