Hymn number 317

SPIRIT divine, attend our prayers,
And make our hearts Thy home;
Descend with all Thy gracious powers,
O come, great Spirit, come.

2

Come as the light; to us reveal
Our emptiness and woe;
And lead us in those paths of life
Where all the righteous go.

3

Come as the fire; and purge our hearts
Like sacrificial flame;
Let our whole soul an offering be
To our Redeemer’s name.

4

Come as the dove; and spread Thy wings,
The wings of peaceful love;
And let Thy Church on earth become
Blest as the Church above.

5

Come as the wind; with rushing sound
And all-inspiring grace;
That needy sinners here may see
The glory of Thy face.

6

Spirit divine, attend our prayers,
Make this lost world Thy home;
Descend with all Thy gracious powers,
O come, great Spirit, come.
