113. O Spirit of the living God!

1 O Spirit of the living God!
In all Thy plenitude of grace,
Where'er the foot of man hath trod,
Descend on our apostate race.

2 Be darkness at Thy coming, light;
Confusion, order, in Thy path;
Souls without strength, inspire with might;
Bid mercy triumph over wrath.

3 Baptize the nations; far and nigh,
The triumph of the cross record;
The name of Jesus glorify,
Till every kindred call Him Lord.

4 God from eternity hath willed
All flesh shall His salvation see;
So be the Father's love fulfilled,
The Saviour's sufferings crowned through Thee.
