Come, Ho­ly Spir­it, God and Lord,
Be all Thy grac­es now ou­tpoured
On each be­liev­er’s mind and soul;
And touch our hearts with liv­ing coal.

Thy light this day shone forth so clear,
All tongues and nations ga­thered near,
To learn that faith, for which we bring
Glad praise to Thee, and loud­ly sing.

Thou strong de­fense, Thou ho­ly light,
Teach us to know our God aright,
And call Him Fa­ther from the heart:
The Word of life and truth im­part.

That we may love not doc­trines strange,
Nor e’er to other teach­ers range,
But Je­sus for our mas­ter own
And put our trust in Him alone.

Thou sac­red ar­dor, com­fort sweet,
Help us to wait with rea­dy feet
And will­ing heart at Thy com­mand,
Nor tri­al fright us from Thy band.

Lord, make us rea­dy with Thy pow­ers,
Strengthen the flesh in weak­er hours,
That as good war­ri­ors we may force
Through life and death to Thee our course.
