CCCLXVIII. A Blessing requested

1 Come, thou soul-transforming spirit,
Bless the sower and the seed;
Let each heart thy grace inherit
Raise the weak, the hungry feed;
From the gospel
Now supply thy people's need.

2 O may all enjoy the blessing!
Which thy word's design'd to give;
Let us all, thy love possessing,
Joyfully the truth receive:
And for ever
To thy praise and glory live.
