But give us grace to stand Decided, brave and strong, The lovers of all holy things, The foes of all things wrong. 4 Spirit of Christ, do Thou Our first bright days inspire That we may live the life of love And loftiest desire; And be by Thee prepared For larger years to come, And for the life ineffable Within the Father's home.
