And shed Thy heavenly gifts abroad
On us, and unto every heart
True faith and fervent love impart;
O Lord, Who by Thy heavnely light,
Hast called Thy Church from sinful night
Out of all nations, tribes, and places;
To thee we render thanks and praises:
Hallelujah. Hallelujah.
2 Thou Light Divine, most gracious Lord.
Revive us by Thy holy word,
And teach Thy flock in truth to call
On God, the Father of us all:
From all strange doctrines us preserve,
No other masters may we serve,
But Christ, Who is our only Saviour;
In Him we will confide for ever:
Hallelujah. Hallelujah
3 O Holy Ghost, kind Comforter,
Help us, with watchfulness and prayer,
'Midst various trials Thee to obey,
And never from the truth to stray:
O Lord, by Thy almighty grace,
Prepare us so to run our race,
That we by Thy illuminations,
May gain heaven's glorious habitation:
Hallelujah. Hallelujah Languages: English
Come Holy Ghost, come Lord our God
