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.
