Author: Ray Palmer; Unknown Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #227 (1941) Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Scripture: Ezekiel 36:26 First Line: Come Holy Ghost, in love Lyrics: 1 Come Holy Ghost, in love
Shed on us from above
Thine own bright ray.
Divinely good Thou art;
The sacred gifts impart
to gladden each sad heart.
Oh, come today!
2 Come, tend'rest Friend and best,
Our mot delightful Guest,
With soothing pow'r.
Rest which the weary know,
Shade mid the noon-tide glow,
Peace when deep griefs o'erflow,
Cheer us this hour.
3 Come, Light serene and still,
Our inmost bosoms fill,
Dwell in each breast.
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. Topics: The Church Year Pentecost Languages: English Tune Title: ITALIAN HYMN
