Author: Ray Palmer Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #172 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Come, Holy Ghost! in love,
Shed on us, from above,
Thine own bright ray:
divinely good thou art;
Thy sacred gifts impart,
To gladden each sad heart;
Oh, come today!
2 Come, tenderest Friend, and best,
Our most delightful Guest!
With soothing power;
Rest, which the weary know;
Shade, 'mid the noontide glow;
Peace, when deep griefs o'erflow;
Cheer us, this hour!
3 Come, light serene! and still,
Our inmost bosoms fill;
Dwell in each breast:
We know no dawn but Thine;
Send forth Thy beams divine,
On our dark souls to shine,
And make us blest.
4 Come, all the faithful bless;
Let all, who Christ confess,
His praise employ:
Give virtue's rich reward;
Victorious death accord,
And, with our glorious Lord,
Eternal joy.
Amen. Topics: Holy Spirit Mocked; Holy Spirit Worshiped; Praise To the Holy Spirit; Witness of the Spirit Languages: English Tune Title: OLIVET
