1 O Holy Spirit, grant us grace
That we our Lord and Savior
In faith and fervent love embrace,
And truly serve Him ever,
So that when death is drawing nigh,
We to His open wounds may fly,
And find in them salvation.
2 Help us that we Thy saving word
In faithful hearts may treasure;
Let e’er that bread of life afford
New grace in richest measure;
Yea, let us die to ev'ry sin,
For heaven create us new within,
That fruits of faith may flourish.
3 And when our earthly race is run,
Death’s bitter hour impending,
Then may Thy work, in us begun,
Continue till life’s ending:
Until we gladly may commend
Our souls into our Savior’s hand,
The crown in peace eternal.
