1 Moving o’er the troubled waters
Came the Spirit in His might:
Clad in the beauty, earth, rejoicing,
Sprang from chaos gloom to light.
Holy Spirit! Holy Spirit!
Calm our souls, dissolve their night,
Calm our souls, dissolve their night,

2 Tongues of fire upon them resting,
Christ’s Apostles felt new power,
Preached the word, converted thousands,
Joyed in Pentecost’s glad hour.
Holy Spirit! Holy Spirit!
Give our souls Thy precious dower!
Give our souls Thy precious dower!

3 Witness throughout all the ages,
Voice to every faithful heart,
Guide to Christ’s one holy body,
Sanctifying love Thou art.
Holy Spirit! Holy Spirit!
Cleanse us, quicken every part!
Cleanse us, quicken every part!

4 Holy Trinity we praise Thee!
God the Father who did’st make,
God the Son who did’st redeem us,
Liv’st in glory for our sake.
Holy Spirit! Holy Spirit!
May we of Thy grace partake.
May we of Thy grace partake.
