XLV. Come, Holy Spirit, come

1 Come, Holy Spirit, come;
Let thy bright beams arise;
Dispel the darkness from our minds,
The darkness from our eyes.

2 Cheer our desponding hearts
With visitations sweet;
Give us to lie, with humble hope,
At our Redeemer’s feet.

3 Revive our drooping faith,
Our doubts and fears remove;
And kindle in our breasts the flames
Of never-dying love.

4 Convince us of our sin,
Then lead to Jesu's blood;
And to our wond'ring view reveal
The secret love of God.

5 Shew us the sinner's Friend
That rules the courts of bliss;
The Lord of hosts, the mighty God,
Th' eternal Prince of Peace.

6 ’Tis thine to cleanse the heart,
T'illuminate the soul,
To pour fresh life on ev'ry part,
And new-create the whole.
