Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism #382 (2018) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: John 14:26 First Line: Come, Holy Spirit, Heav'nly Dove Lyrics: 1 Come, Holy Spirit, Heav'nly Dove,
With all Thy quick'ning pow'rs;
Kindle a flame of sacred love
In these cold hearts of ours.
2 Look, how we grovel here below,
Fond of these earthly toys;
Our souls, how heavily they go,
To reach eternal joys.
3 In vain we tune our formal songs,
In vain we strive to rise;
Hosannas languish on our tongues,
And our devotion dies.
4 Father, and shall we ever live
At this poor dying rate,
Our love so faint, so cold to Thee,
And Thine to us so great?
5 Come, Holy Spirit, Heav'nly Dove,
With all Thy quick'ning pow'rs;
Come, shed abroad a Savior’s love,
And that shall kindle ours. Topics: The Gospel in the Christian Life Christian Life, Discipleship; Holy Spirit Renewal; Renewal Languages: English Tune Title: ST. MARTIN'S
