Lyrics

Holy Spi­rit, come with power
In this sacred place;
Give Thy presence to this hour,
Help us by Thy grace.

Holy Spi­rit, heav’nly friend,
Teach us how to pray;
While before Thy throne we bend,
Dwell within today.

Holy Spi­rit, guest within,
Hear our earnest prayer;
In our hearts Thy work begin,
Reign for­ev­er there.
