Here is a link to the [http://homeappliance.manualsonline.com/manuals/mfg/lennox_hearth/mpe36r.html?p=1|user manual] for a Lennox heater (hopefully it is very similar in its' operation to yours).
Here are two images taken from the manual which seem to indicate that the flame and ember lights can be turned on without the heater being on. You need to have the 1st and 3rd switches on and the 2nd switch off.

If you are not getting any lights when operating the switch perhaps the lights have burnt out (seems a lot though as the replacement parts on p.16 of the manual indicate that there are 10 x 35W halogen lights in the heater) or perhaps there is a problem with the lighting circuit.
