All our sinfulness erase With the increase of thy grace. A-men. 3 Blessèd Spirit, who renewest All that dwell upon the earth, When the evil one assails us Help us prove our heavenly birth; Arm us with thy mighty sword In the legions of the Lord. 4 Help us keep the faith forever; Let not Satan, death or shame Draw us from thee, or deprive us Of the honor of thy Name. When the foe would lure us hence, Be thou, God, our sure defence. Amen. Used With Tune: KOMM, O KOMM, DU GEIST DES LEBENS

O Lord of health and life, what tongue can tell

Author: G. Phillimore Appears in 13 hymnals Topics: Holy Ghost Our Comforter Lyrics: 1 O Lord of health and life, what tongue can tell, How at Thy word were loosed the bands of hell; How Thy pure touch removed the leprous stain, And the polluted flesh grew clean again? 2 O wash our hearts, restore the contrite soul, Stretch forth Thy healing hand, and make us whole; O bend our stubborn knees to kneel to Thee, Speak but the word and we once more are free. 3 Yea, Lord, we claim the promise of Thy love, Thy love, which can all guilt, all pain remove; Nigh to our souls Thy great salvation bring, Then sickness hath no pang, and death no sting. 4 We hail this pledge in all Thy deeds of grace, As once disease and sorrow fled Thy face, So when that face again unveiled we see, Sickness, and tears, and death no more shall be. 5 Then grant us strength to pray, "Thy kingdom come," When we shall know Thee in Thy Father's home, And at Thy great Epiphany adore The co-eternal Godhead evermore.

O Thou that hear'st when sinners cry

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 342 hymnals Topics: Holy Ghost Grieved Lyrics: 1 O Thou that hear'st when sinners cry, Though all my crimes before Thee lie, Behold them not with angry look, But blot their memory from Thy book. 2 Create my nature pure within, And form my soul averse to sin; Let Thy good Spirit ne'er depart, Nor hide Thy presence from my heart. 3 I cannot live without Thy light, Cast out and banish from Thy sight; Thy holy joys, my God, restore, And guard me that I fall no more. 4 Though I have grieved Thy Spirit, Lord, His help and comfort still afford; And let me now come near Thy throne, To plead the merits of Thy Son. 5 A broken heart, my God, my King! Is all the sacrifice I bring: But Thou, O Lord, will ne'er despise A broken heart for sacrifice. 6 My soul lies humbled in the dust, And owns Thy dreadful sentence just: Look down, O Lord, with pitying eye, And save the soul condemned to die. 7 Then will I teach the world Thy ways; Sinners shall learn Thy sov'reign grace; I'll lead them to my Saviour's blood, And they shall praise a pard'ning God. 8 O may Thy love inspire my tongue; Salvation shall be all my song, And all my powers shall join to bless The Lord, my strength and righteousness.
