Come, Holy Ghost, Our Souls Inspire
Author: John Cosin, 1594-1672; Rhabanus Maurus, 776-856 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 248 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, Holy Ghost, our souls inspire,
Ignite them with celestial fire;
Spirit of God, you have the art
Your gifts, the sev'nfold, to impart.
2 Your best outpouring from above
Is comfort, life, and fire of love.
Illumine with perpetual light
The dullness of our blinded sight.
3 Anoint and cheer our much-soiled face
With the abundance of your grace.
Keep far our foes; give peace at home;
Where you guide us, no ill can come.
4 Teach us to know the Father, Son,
And you, of both, to be but one
That, as the ceaseless ages throng,
Your praise may be our endless song!

Come, Holy Ghost, Our Souls Inspire
Awake, my soul, in joyful lays
Author: M. Medley Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,075 hymnals 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.

Come, Holy Ghost, Creator Blest
Author: Edward Caswall; A. Rabanus Mauras, d. 856 Appears in 286 hymnals 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.

To Thee, the gift of God most high,
The fount of life, the fire of love,
The soul's anointing from above.
3 The seven-fold gifts of grace are Thine,
O finger of the hand divine;
True promise of the Father Thou,
Who dost the tongue with speech endow.

And shed Thy love in every heart;
The weakness of our mortal state
With deathless might invigorate.

And Thine abiding peace bestow;
If Thou be our preventing guide,
No evil can our steps betide.

Teach us th'eternal Son to own,
And Thee, whose name we ever bless,
Of both the Spirit, to confess.

And Holy Spirit, Thee in One:
And may the Son on us bestow
The gifts that from the Spirit flow. Topics: Church Festivals Pentecost Used With Tune: KOM HELLIGAAND

Lord God, to You We All Give Praise

To you with joy our thanks we raise
For angel multitudes that shine
In your great throne room crystalline.
2 From them flow light and heav'nly grace
Reflecting splendors of your face.
They heed your voice, they know it well,
In godly wisdom they excel.
3 They never rest nor sleep as we;
Their whole delight is but to be
With you, Lord Jesus, and to keep
Your little flock, your lambs and sheep.
4 Increase, we plead, our song of praise
For angel hosts that guard our days;
Teach us to ceaselessly adore,
To serve as they do evermore.
