1 Lord God, the Holy Ghost!
In this accepted hour,
As on the day of Pentecost,
Descend in all Thy power.
2 We meet with one accord
In our appointed place,
And plead the promise of our Lord,
The Spirit of all grace.
3 The young, the old inspire
With wisdom from above;
And give us hearts and tongues of fire,
To pray, and praise, and love.
4 Spirit of light, explore
And chase our gloom away,
With lustre shining more and more
Unto the perfect day!
5 Spirit of truth, be Thou
In life and death our Guide;
O Spirit of adoption, now
May we be sanctified!
Amen.
