With all Thy quickening powers;
Kindle a flame of sacred love
In these cold hearts of ours.
2 See how we grovel here below,
Fond of these earthly toys;
Our souls, how heavily they go,
To reach eternal joys!
3 Dear Lord, and shall we ever live
At this poor, dying rate?
Our love so faint, so cold to Thee,
And Thine to us so great?
5 Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove,
With all Thy quickening powers,
Come, shed abroad a Saviour's love,
And that shall kindle ours. Topics: Spirutual Declension; Faith Weak; Holy Ghost; Holy Ghost Prayed for; Invocation; Love To God and Christ Used With Tune: NORMANTON
