13671. Descend Upon Us

1 Spirit of life and truth and love,
Our Comforter and Guide,
Descend upon us, heavenly Dove,
And with our souls abide!

2 Shine Thou upon the written word,
And on our vision shine,
That we may see our Savior, Lord,
In every gracious line.

3 And guide us in the paths of peace
Thro’ life’s uneven way,
Until these earthly wanderings ceae,
In Heaven’s unclouded day.
