Representative Text

1 Holy Spirit, now outpoured,
Sent by our ascended Lord,
Bless our gath’ring here today,
Be our hallowed Guide, we pray.

2 Fill each heart and reign alone,
Break the idols we have known;
Lead us to confession true,
Give us strength Thy will to do.

3 Guide into all truth, we plead,
Light the Holy Page we read;
Write its precepts deep within,
Till we’re kept from ev’ry sin.

4 May Thy quick’ning pow’r we feel—
Human doubt and weakness heal;
May Thy presence, like a fire,
Burn within—our zeal inspire.
