Author: William L. Alexander Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9081 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Spirit of power, and truth, and love Lyrics: 1 Spirit of power, and truth, and love,
Who sitt’st enthroned in light above,
Descend, and bear us on Thy wings
Far from these low and fleeting things.
2 Compassed by foes on every side,
By sin and sore temptation tried,
Where can we look or whither flee
If not, great Strengthener, to Thee?
3 Come, Holy Spirit, like the fire,
With burning zeal our souls inspire,
Come like the south wind breathing balm,
Our joys refresh, our passions calm.
4 Come like the sun’s enlightening beam,
Come like the cooling, cleansing stream,
With all Thy graces present be:
Spirit of God, we wait for Thee. Languages: English Tune Title: GRACE CHURCH
