thou Comforter divine,
blest Spirit of all truth, be nigh
and make us thine.

for evermore.

and in the fullness of thy love
cleanse us, we pray. Topics: Church Year Pentecost; Devotion; Holy Spirit as Comforter; Holy Spirit Invocation of; Pentecost and the Work of the Holy Spirit Scripture: John 14:26-27 Used With Tune: TEMPLE Text Sources: Based on βασιλευ ούράνιε, Παράκλιτε, (Greek, c. 8th century)
