Come, Holy Ghost, Creator blest
Author: Rabanas Mauras, d. 856 Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #355 (1913) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Come, Holy Ghost, Creator blest,
Vouchsafe within our souls to rest;
Come with Thy grace and heavenly aid
And fill the hearts which Thou hast made.
2 To Thee, the Comforter, we cry,
To Thee, the gift of God most high,
The fount of life, the fire of love,
The souls' anointing from above.
3 The sevenfold gifts of grace are Thine,
O finger of the hand divine;
True promise of the Father Thou,
Who dost the tongue with speech endow.
4 Thy light to every thought impart,
And shed Thy love in every heart;
The weakness of our mortal state
With deathless might invigorate.
5 Drive far away our wily foe,
And Thine abiding peace bestow;
If Thou be our protecting guide,
No evil can our steps betide.
6 Make Thou to us the Father known;
Teach us th'eternal Son to own,
And Thee, whose name we ever bless,
Of both the Spirit, to confess.
7 Praise we the Father and Son,
And Holy Spirit, Thee in One:
And may the Son on us bestow
The gifts that from the Spirit flow. Topics: The Church Year Fourth Sunday after Easter; The Church Year Fourth Sunday after Easter; Beginning of Service Tune Title: [Come, Holy Ghost, Creator blest]
Come, Holy Ghost, Creator blest
Awake, my soul, in joyful lays
Author: M. Medley Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #432 (1913) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Awake, my soul, in joyful lays
And sing Thy great Redeemer’s praise;
He justly claims a song from thee,
His lovingkindness, O how free!
2 He saw me ruined in the fall,
Yet loved me notwithstanding all;
And saved me from my lost estate,
His lovingkindness, O how great!
3 Though numerous hosts of mighty foes;
Though earth and hell my way oppose,
He safely leads my soul along.
His lovingkindness, O how strong!
4 When trouble, like a gloomy cloud,
Has gathered thick and thundered loud,
He near my soul has always stood,
His lovingkindness, O how good!
5 Often I feel my sinful heart,
Prone from my Savior to depart;
But though I oft have Him forgot,
His lovingkindness changes not.
6 Soon shall I pass the gloomy vale,
Soon all my mortal powers must fail;
O may my last expiring breath
His lovingkindness praise in death.
