Leviticus 10:2: There went out fire from the Lord, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Warm'd by fond nature's wild desire,
I brought strange uncommanded fire:
Inflamed with persecuting zeal,
I served Thee — with the fire of hell:
Yet undevour'd, O God, I sing
Thy grace; and now my offering bring,
Pure incense, kindled from above
By the true fire of Jesu's love.
