| Added by crosby3145, 15 May 2018 Stirring arrangement of Let the Lower Lights Be Burning, perfect for prelude, offertory, or other special service music “Let the Lower Lights Be Burning” was inspired by a D.L. Moody sermon. Moody once told a story of a ship approaching Cleveland Harbor. The lighthouse showed where the harbor was, but other lights that were supposed to mark the harbor’s entry (the “lower lights”) had gone out, due to negligence. Unable to tell where the danger lay, the pilot ran the ship into a rock, and many drowned. That inspired the now famous words of Bliss (“but to us He gives the keeping of the lights along the shore”—“Some poor fainting, struggling seaman you may rescue, you may save.”) Sheet central : | Let the Lower Lights Be Burning (2 sheet music) | | |||
