HYMN 160

O.t. H.C 247, D.S.M (FE 179)



1.  LORD God the Holy Ghost 

     In this accepted hour

     As on the day of Pentecost 

     Descend in all Thy power 

     We meet in one accord

     In our appointed place

     And wait the promise of our Lord 
 
     The Spirit of all grace.


2.  Like mighty rushing wind

     Upon the waves beneath,

     Move with one impulse every mind 

     One soul, one feeling, breathe

     The young, the old, inspire

     With wisdom from above,

     And give us hearts and tongues of fire 

    To pray, and praise, and love.


3.  Spirit of light, explore

     And chase our gloom away

     With lustre shining more and more 

     Unto the perfect day;

     Spirit of truth, be Thou

     In life and death our Guide

     O Spirit of adoption, now

     May we be sanctified.  Amen
