Hymn Book ‎#38

38. Come, Holy Spirit, God and Lord!

1 Come, Holy Spirit, God and Lord!
Be all Thy graces now outpoured
On Thy believer’s soul and heart,
Thy fervent love to them impart.
Lord, by the brightness of Thy light
Thou in the faith dost men unite
Of every tongue and every nation;
We therefore sing with exultation:
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

2 Thou Holy Light and Guide divine,
Oh cause the word of life to shine,
Teach us to know our God aright
And call Him Father with delight.
From doctrines strange our souls defend,
That they on Christ alone attend,
In Him with living faith abiding,
In Him with all their might confiding.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

3 Thou Holy Fire, sweet Source of rest,
Grant that, with joy and hope possessed,
We in thy service ever stay,
And trouble drive us not away.
Lord, let Thy power prepare our heart,
To our weak nature strength impart,
That firmly here we be contending,
Through death and life to Thee ascending.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
