180. Holy Spirit, God of Love

Holy Spirit, God of love,
Who our darkness brightens,
Poured on us from heav'n above,
And our faith enlightens,
In your light we gather here;
Show us that Christ's promise clear
Is Amen forever.
Jesus, our ascended Lord,
Oh, fulfill your gracious Word;
Bless us with your favor!
