Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-88 Hymnal: Together in Song #425 (1999) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Romans 5:1-5 Lyrics: 1 Come, Spirit blest, our hearts inspire,
let us your influence prove.
source of the old prophetic fire,
fountain of life and love.
2 Come, Holy Spirit, moved by you
the prophets wrote and spoke;
unlock the truth, yourself the key,
unseal the sacred book.
3 Expand your wings, celestial dove,
brood o'er our nature's night;
on our disordered spirits move,
and let there now be light.
4 God, through himself, we then shall know,
if you within us shine,
and sound, with all your saints below,
the depths of love divine. Topics: Divine Inspiration; Funerals; God's Love to Us; Holy Spirit; Light; Prayer for Illimination; Prophetic Witness; Revelation; Scripture; Truth; Worship The Word Languages: English Tune Title: RICHMOND
