[Verse 1]
Brightly beams our Father's mercy
From His lighthouse, evermore
But to us, He gives the keeping
Of the lights along the shore

[Chorus]
Let the lower lights be burning
Send a gleam across the wave
Some poor fainting, struggling seaman
You may rescue, you may save

[Verse 2]
Dark the night of sin has settled
Loud the angry billows road
Eager eyes are watching, longing
For the lights along the shore

[Chorus]
Let the lower lights be burning
Send a glеam across the wave
Some poor fainting, struggling sеaman
You may rescue, you may save

[Verse 3]
Trim your feeble lamp, my brother
Some poor sailor, tempest-toss'd
Trying now to make the harbor
In the darkness, may be lost
[Chorus]
Let the lower lights be burning
Send a gleam across the wave
Some poor fainting, struggling seaman
You may rescue, you may save
You may rescue, you may save
