O Spirit of the living God
Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 374 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Spirit of the living God,
in all the fullness of your grace,
wherever human feet has trod,
descend upon our rebellious race.
2 Give tongues of fire and hearts of love
to preach the reconciling word;
anoint with power from heaven above
whenever gospel truth is heard.
3 Let darkness, at your coming, light;
confusion, order in your path;
souls without strength inspire with might;
bid mercy triumph over wrath.
4 O, Spirit of the Lord, prepare
the whole round earth its God to meet;
and breathe abroad like morning air,
till hearts of stone begin to beat.
5 Baptize the nations; far and wide
the triumphs of the Cross record;
the name of Christ be glorified;
let every people call him Lord.

O Spirit of the living God
Eternal Monarch, King most high
Author: J. M. Neale, 1818-66 Appears in 11 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Eternal Monarch, King most high,
Whose blood hath brought redemption nigh,
By whom the death of Death was wrought
And conquering grace’s battle fought:
2 Ascending to the throne of might,
And seated at the Father’s right,
All power in heaven is Jesu’s own,
That here his manhood had not known.
3 Yea, angels tremble when they see
How changed is our humanity;
That flesh hath purged what flesh had stained,
And God, the flesh of God, hath reigned.
4 Be thou our joy and strong defence,
Who art our future recompense:
So shall the light that springs from thee
Be ours through all eternity.
5 O risen Christ, ascended Lord,
All praise to thee let earth accord,
Who art, while endless ages run,
With Father and with Spirit One.
Amen. Topics: The Christian Year Ascensiontide; Office Hymn Used With Tune: GONFALON ROYAL Text Sources: Latin, c. 5th century

thy tender mercies still abide.

thou brother Man and sovereign Lord,
that we thy brethren, day by day
may follow thee and keep thy word.

for sick and lame, for deaf and blind,
and freely share, as thou hast shared,
in all the woes of humankind.

to help and bless, to heal and save;
this is the happiness we ask,
and this the service that we crave.
