209 ~ Come, Holy Spirit
1
Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove, With all thy quickening powers; Kindle a flame of sacred love In these cold hearts of ours.
2
O raise our thoughts from things below, From vanities and toys! Then shall we with fresh courage go To reach eternal joys.
3
Awake our souls to joyful songs; Let pure devotion rise; Till praise employs our thankful tongues, And doubt forever dies.
4
Father, we would no longer live At this poor, dying rate; To thee our tankful love we give, For thine to us is great.
5
Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove, With all thy quickening powers; Come, shed abroad the Saviour’s love And that shall kindle ours.
