of circling planets singing on their way;
guide of the nations from the night profound
into the glory of the perfect day;
rule in our hearts, that we may ever be
guided and strengthened and upheld by thee.
2 We are of thee, the children of thy love,
by virtue of thy well-belovèd Son;
descend, O Holy Spirit, like a dove,
into our hearts, that we may be as one:
as one with thee, to whom we ever tend;
as one with him, our Brother and our Friend.
3 We would be one in hatred of all wrong,
one in our love of all things sweet and fair,
one with the joy that breaketh into song,
one with the grief that trembles into prayer,
one in the pow'r that makes thy children free
to follow truth, and thus to follow thee.
4 O clothe us with thy heav'nly armour, Lord,
thy trusty shield, thy sword of love divine;
our inspiration be thy constant word;
we ask no victories that are not thine:
give or withhold, let pain or pleasure be;
enough to know that we are serving thee. Scripture: Ephesians 1:5 Used With Tune: SONG 1

and conquer in his sign.

till in that home of glory
with fadeless splendour bright,
we serve in perfect freedom
our strength, our life, our light. Used With Tune: AURELIA

seek now this soul of mine,
and visit it with your own ardour glowing.

and kindle it, your holy flame bestowing.
2 O let it freely burn,
till earthly passions turn
to dust and ashes in its heat consuming;
and let your glorious light
shine ever on my sight,
and clothe me round, my onward path illuming.

with which the soul will long
shall far outpass the power of human telling;
for none can guess its grace,

wherein the Holy Spirit makes its dwelling. Used With Tune: DOWN AMPNEY
