Holy Spirit, Lamp of Light

1

Holy Spirit, lamp of light,
Shine upon our nature's night;
Give thy blessed inward sight,
Comforter divine!

2

We are sinful; cleanse us, Lord;
We are faint; thy strength afford;
Lost — until by thee restored,
Comforter divine!

3

Like the dew, thy peace distill;
Guide, subdue our wayward will,
Things of Christ unfolding still,
Comforter divine!

4

In us "Abba, Father," cry —
Earnest of our rest on high,
Hope of immortality,
Comforter divine!

5

Search for us the depths of God;
Bear us up the starry road
To the height of thine abode,
Comforter divine!
