Come, thou everlasting Spirit

Author: Charles Wesley (1707-88) Appears in 81 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, thou everlasting Spirit, Bring to every thankful mind All the Saviour’s dying merit, All his sufferings for mankind. 2 True Recorder of his passion, Now the living faith impart; Now reveal his great salvation; Preach his gospel to my heart. 3 Come, thou Witness of his dying; Come, remembrancer divine! Let us feel thy power, applying Christ to every soul, and mine. 4 Let us groan thine inward groaning, Look on him we pierced, and grieve; All receive the grace atoning, All the sprinkled blood receive.
