273. Spirit blest, who art adored

1 Spirit blest, who art adored,
With the Father and the Word,
One Eternal God and Lord:
Hear us Holy Spirit.

2 Comforter, to whom we owe
All that we rejoice to know
Of our Saviour's work below:
Hear us Holy Spirit.

3 Spirit, showing us the way,
Warning when we go astray,
Pleading in us when we pray:
Hear us Holy Spirit.

4 Spirit, whom our failings grieve,
Whom the world will not receive,
Who dost help us to believe:
Hear us Holy Spirit.

5 Spirit, aiding all who yearn
More of truth Divine to learn,
And with deeper love to burn:
Hear us Holy Spirit.

6 Holy, Loving, as thou art,
Come and live within our heart,
Never from us to depart:
Hear us Holy Spirit.

7 May we soon from sin set free,
Where Thy work may perfect be,
Jesus' face with rapture see:
Hear us Holy Spirit.

Amen.
