7969. O Blessed Spirit From On High

1 O blessèd Spirit from on high,
Who came to take the Master’s place,
And work His work within our hearts,
And fill us with His heav’nly grace;

2 Leave us no longer comfortless,
But ever in our spirits dwell,
The Father’s presence to reveal,
The Savior’s gracious love to tell.

3 Bring all His teachings to our minds,
And guide us into all His truth,
Take of His own, and show to us,
The secret of immortal youth.

4 Convince of sin and righteousness,
Of judgment, and the life to be,
That by the cleansing power of grace
Our souls from evil may be free.

5 Perfect in us Christ’s holy joy,
Endue us with His promised power,
That we may live as He would live,
Until life’s glad and final hour.
