Texts

Sweetly sang the Angels in the clear calm night

Hear us, thou that broodedst

Hear us, Thou that broodest
O'er the watery deep,
Waking all creation
From its primal sleep;
Holy Spirit breathing
Breath of life divine,
Breathe into our spirits,
Blending them with Thine.
Light and life immortal!
Hear us as we raise
Hearts, as well as voices,
Mingling prayer and praise.
