Let Thy bright beams arise; Dispel the sorrow from our minds, The darkness from our eyes. 2 Revive our drooping faith, Our doubts and fears remove, And kindle in our breasts the flame Of never-dying love. 3 Convince us of our sin, Then lead to Jesus’ blood, And to our wond’ring view reveal The mercies of our God. 4 ’Tis Thine to cleanse the heart, To sanctify the soul, To pour fresh life into each part, And new-create the whole. 5 Dwell therefore in our hearts; Our minds from bondage free; Then we shall know and praise and love, The Father, Son, and Thee.

Come, Oh, Come, Thou Quickening Spirit

Author: Heinrich Held; Charles W. Schaeffer Hymnal: LH1941 #226 (1941) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 First Line: Come, oh, come, Thou quick'ning Spirit Lyrics: 1 Come, oh, come, Thou quick'ning Spirit, God from all eternity! May Thy power never fail us; Dwell within us constantly. Then shall truth and life and light Banish all the gloom of night. 2 Grant our hearts in fullest measure Wisdom, counsel, purity, That they ever may be seeking Only that which pleaseth Thee. Let Thy knowledge spread and grow, Working error's overthrow. 3 Show us, Lord, the path of blessing; When we trespass on our way, Cast, O Lord, our sins behind Thee And be with us day by day. Should we stray, O Lord, recall; Work repentance when we fall. 4 With our spirit bear Thou witness That we are the sons of God Who rely upon Him solely When we pass beneath the rod; For we know, as children should, That the cross is for our good. 5 Prompt us, Lord, to come before Him With a childlike heart to pray; Sigh in us, O Holy Spirit, When we know not what to say. Then our prayer is not in vain, And our faith new strength shall gain. 6 If our soul can find no comfort And despondency grows strong, That the heart cries out in anguish: "O my God, how long, how long?" Comfort then our aching breast, Grant it courage, patience, rest. 7 Holy Spirit, strong and mighty, Thou who makest all things new, Make Thy work within us perfect And the evil foe subdue. Grant us weapons for the strife And with victory crown our life. 8 Guard, O God, our faith forever; Let not Satan, death, or shame Ever part us from our Savior; Lord our Refuge is Thy name. Though our flesh cry ever: Nay! Be Thy Word to us still Yea! 9 And when life's frail thread is breaking, Then assure us more and more, As the heirs of life unending, Of the glory there in store, Glory never yet expressed, Glory of the saints at rest. Amen. Topics: The Church Year Pentecost Scripture: Romans 8:16 Languages: English Tune Title: KOMM, O KOMM, DU GEIST DES LEBENS

We know no dawn but Thine: Send forth Thy beams divine On our dark souls to shine And make us blest. 4 Exalt our low desires, Extinguish passion's fires, Heal every wound. Our stubborn spirits bend, Our icy coldness end, Our devious steps attend While heavenward bound. 5 Come, all the faithful bless; Let all who Christ confess His praise employ. Give virtue's rich reward, Victorious death accord And, with our glorious Lord, Eternal joy. Amen.
