Hymnal: Christian Hymns #190 (1898) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Topics: Invocation Lyrics: 1 Come, O come, Thou quickening Spirit,
Thou forever art divine:
Let Thy power never fail me,
Always fill this heart of mine;
Thus shall grace, and truth, and light,
Dissipate the gloom of night.
2 Grant my mind and my affections
Wisdom, counsel, purity,
That I may be ever seeking
Naught but that which pleases Thee.
Let Thy knowledge spread and grow,
And all error overthrow.
3 Lead me to green pastures, lead me
By the true and living way;
Shield me from each strong temptation,
That might lead my heart astray;
And if e'er my feet should turn,
For each error let me mourn.
4 Holy Spirit, strong and mighty,
Thou who makest all things new,
Make Thy work within me perfect,
Help me by Thy Word so true,
Arm me with that sword of Thine,
And the victory shall be mine.
5 In the faith, O make me steadfast;
Let not Satan, death, or shame,
Of my confidence deprive me;
Lord, my refuge is Thy name.
When the flesh inclines to ill,
Let Thy Word prove stronger still.
6 And when my last hour is nearing,
Oh, assure me ever more,
As the chosen heir of heaven,
Of that bliss for me in store,
Greater far than tongue can tell,
There, redeemed by Christ, to dwell.
