Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #461 (1930) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: American Lutheran Hymnal First Line: Come, Holy Spirit, heav'nly Dove Lyrics: 1 Come, Holy Spirit, heav'nly Dove,
With all Thy quick'ning pow'rs;
Kindle the flame of sacred love
In these cold hearts of ours.
2 Look how we grovel here below,
Fond of these earthly toys;
Our souls, how heavily they go,
To reach eternal joys!
3 Dear Lord, and shall we ever live
At this poor, dying rate?
Our love so cold, so faint to Thee,
And Thine to us so great?
4 Come, Holy Spirit, heav'nly Dove,
With all Thy quick'ning pow'rs;
Come, shed abroad the Savior's love,
And that shall kindle ours.
Amen. Topics: The Church Year Pentecost Languages: English Tune Title: ST. AGNES
