Spirit of Faith, Come Down

1 SPIRIT of faith, come down,
Reveal the things of God;
And make to us the Godhead known,
And witness with the blood.

2 ’Tis thine the blood to apply,
And give us eyes to see
Who did for every sinner die
Hath surely died for me.

3 No man can truly say
That Jesus is the Lord.
Unless Thou take the veil away.
And breathe the living word.

4 Then, only then, we feel,
Our interest in His blood,
And cry, with joy unspeakable:
Thou art my Lord, my God.

5 O that the world might know
The all-atoning Lamb!
Spirit of faith, descend, and show
The virtue of His name.

6 The grace which all may find
The saving power impart;
And testify to all mankind,
And speak in every heart.

7 Inspire the living faith,
Which whosoe’er receives,
The witness in himself he hath,
And consciously believes.

8 The faith that conquers all,
And doth the mountain move,
And saves whoe’er on Jesus call,
And perfects them in love.
