Spirit of God, Descend upon My Heart
Author: George Croly, 1780-1860 Appears in 347 hymnals Topics: Education Christian Lyrics: 1 Spirit of God, descend upon my heart;
Wean it from earth, through all its pulses move;
Stoop to my weakness, mighty as Thou art,
And make me love Thee as I ought to love.
2 I ask no dream, no prophet ecstasies,
No sudden rending of the veil of clay,
No angel visitant, no opening skies;
But take the dimness of my soul away.
3 Hast Thou not bid us love Thee, God and King?
All, all Thine own, soul, heart and strength and mind.
I see Thy cross--there teach my heart to cling:
O let me seek Thee, and O let me find.
4 Teach me to feel that Thou art always nigh;
Teach me the struggles of the soul to bear,
To check the rising doubt, the rebel sigh;
Teach me the patience of unanswered prayer.
5 Teach me to love Thee as Thine angels love,
One holy passion filling all my frame;
The baptism of the heaven-descended Dove,
My heart an altar, and Thy love the flame.
Amen. Used With Tune: MORECAMBE

Thy praise may be our endless song!

Through ev'ry rising race.

And they again to theirs
That generations yet unborn
May teach them to their heirs.
