CXCII | A Pocket Hymn Book#CXCIII | CXCIV |
1 Father of our dying Lord,
Remember us for good,
O fulfil his faithful word,
And hear his speaking blood!
Give us that for which he prays;
Father, glorify thy son;
Shew his truth, and pow'r, and grace,
And send the promise down.
2 True and faithful Witness, thou,
O Christ, the Spirit give!
Hast thou not receiv'd him now,
That we might now receive?
Art thou not the living Head?
Life to all thy limbs impart:
Shed thy love, thy Spirit shed,
In ev'ry waiting heart.
3 Holy Ghost, the Comforter,
The gift of Jesus, come:
Glows our heart to find thee near,
And swell to make thee room;
Present with us thee we feel,
Come, O come, and in us be!
With us, in us, live and dwell
To all eternity.
