And let thy Holy Spirit bow
All hearts in love and fear today,
To hear the truth and keep thy way.
2 Our voices tune to sing thy praise,
Our hearts in true devotion raise,
Our faith increase, and grant us light
That we may know thy Name aright. A-men.
3 Then shall we join the hosts that cry,
Thrice-holy is the Lord Most High!
And dwell with God in that blest place
Where we shall see him face to face.
4 Glory to God, the Father, Son,
And Holy Spirit, Three in One;
To thee, O blesséd Trinity,
Be praise throughout eternity!
Amen. Topics: The Church Worship - In The Presence; The Church Worship - The Beginning of Service Languages: English Tune Title: HERR JESU CHRIST, DICH ZU UNS WEND
