O shed thine influence from above;
and still from age to age convey
the wonders of this sacred day.
2. In every clime, by every tongue,
be God’s amazing glory sung;
let all the listening earth be taught
the deeds our great Redeemer wrought.
3. Unfailing Comfort, heavenly Guide,
still o’er thy holy Church preside;
O shed thine influence from above,
Spirit of mercy, truth, and love.
