O enter, Lord, Thy temple

Author: Gerhardt Hymnal: Chorale Book for England, The #71 (1863) Lyrics: O enter, Lord, Thy temple, Be Thou my spirit's guest! Who at my birth didst give me A second birth more blest. Thou in the Godhead, Lord, Though here to dwell Thou deignest, For ever equal reignest, Art equally adored. O enter, let me know Thee, And feel Thy power within, The power that breaks our fetters, And rescues us from sin; So wash and cleanse Thou me, That I may serve Thee truly, And render honour duly With perfect heart to Thee. 'Tis Thou, O Spirit, teachest The soul to pray aright; Thy songs have sweetest mufic, Thy prayers have wondrous might; Unheard they cannot fall, They pierce the highest heaven, Till He His help hath given Who surely helpeth all. Joy is Thy gift, O Spirit! Thou wouldst not have us pine; In darkest hours Thy comfort Doth aye most brightly shine; Ah then how oft thy voice Hath shed its sweetness o'er me, And open'd heaven before me, And bid my heart rejoice! All love is Thine, O Spirit! Thou hatest enmity; Thou lovest peace and friendship, All strife wouldst have us flee; Where wrath and discord reign Thy whisper inly pleadeth, And to the heart that heedeth Brings love and light again. The whole wide world, O Spirit! Upon Thy hands doth rest, Our wayward hearts Thou turnest: As it may seem Thee best; Once more Thy power make known! As Thou hast done so often, Convert the wicked, soften To tears the heart of stone. With holy zeal then fill us, To keep the faith still pure And bless our lands and houses With wealth that may endure; And make that foe to flee Who in us with Thee striveth From out our heart he driveth Whate'er delighteth Thee. Order our path in all things According to Thy mind, And when this life is over, And must be all resign'd, Oh grant us then to die With calm and fearless spirit, And after death inherit Eternal life on high.
