214 ~ Our Blest Redeemer
1
Our blest Redeemer, ere he breathed His tender last farewell, A Guide, a Comforter, bequeathed With us to dwell.
2
He came sweet influence to impart, A gracious, willing Guest, While he can find one humble heart Wherein to rest.
3
And his that gentle voice we hear, Soft as the breath of even, That checks the wrong, that calms the fear, And speaks of Heaven.
4
And every virtue we possess, And every victory won, And every thought of holiness Are his alone.
5
Spirit of purity and grace, Our weakness, pitying, see; O make our hearts thy dwelling place, Till all like thee.
