Lyrics

Spirit Divine, attend our pray’rs,
And make this house Thy home;
Descend with all Thy gracious pow’rs,
Oh come, Great Spirit, come!
Come as the light; to us reveal
Our emptiness and woe;
And lead us in those paths of life
Where all the righteous go.

Come as the dove, and spread thy wings,
The wings of peaceful love;
And let Thy church on earth become
Blest as Thy church above.
Come as the fire, and purge our hearts
Like sacrificial flame;
Let our whole soul an off’ring be
To our Redeemer’s name.
