The comforter

Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CCVI (1792) First Line: Jesus, we hang upon the word Lyrics: 1 Jesus, we hang upon the word, Our longing souls have heard from thee; Be mindful of thy promise Lord, Thy promise made to such as me, To such as Sion's paths pursue, And would believe that God is true. 2 Thou say's, "I will the father pray, "And he the comforter shall give, "Shall give him in your hearts to stay, "And never more his temples leave; "Myself will to my orphans come, "And make you mine eternal home." 3 Come, then, dear lord, thyself reveal, And let the promise now take place; Be it according to thy will, According to the word of grace: Thy sorrowful disciples cheer, And send us dow the comforter. 4 He visits oft the troubled breast, And oft relives our sad complaint; But soon we loe the transient guest, But soon we droop again and faint, Repeat the melancholy mean, "Our joy is fled, our comfort gone." 5 Hasten him, Lord, into each heart, Our sure inseperable guide; O may we meet and never part! O may he in our hearts abide! And keep his house of praise and prayer, And rest and reign for ever there!
