The Song Book of the Salvation Army ‎#756

756. Spirit of faith, come down

1 Spirit of faith, come down,
Reveal the things of God,
And make to us the Godhead known,
And witness with the blood.

2 ‘Tis thine the blood to apply,
And give us eyes to see
Who did for every sinner die
Hath surely died for me.

3 Then, only then, we feel
Our interest in his blood,
And cry, with joy unspeakable:
Thou art my Lord, my God!

4 Inspire the living faith,
Which whosoe’er receives,
The witness in himself he hath
And consciously believes;

5 The faith that conquers all,
And doth the mountain move,
And saves whoe’er on Jesus call,
And perfects them in love.
