HYMN 41

C.M.S.39, H.C. 15, L.M (FE 58)
"I will pour out my spirit on all flesh"
- Acts 2:17


1.  O SPIRIT of the living God

     In all thy plentitude of grace 

     Where'er the foot of man hath trod 

     Descend on our apostate race.


2.  Give tongues of fire and hearts of love 

     To preach the reconciling word

     Give pow‘r and unction from above 

     When e’er the joyful sound is heard.


3.  Bye darkness, at Thy coming, light 

     Confusion order in Thy path

     Souls without strength inspire with might 

     Bid mercy triumph over wrath.


4.  Oh Spirit of the Lord, prepare

     All the round earth her God to meet,

     Breath thou abroad, like morning air 

     Till hearts of stone begin to beat.


5.  Baptize the nations, far and nigh

     The triumphs of the cross record

     The name of Jesus glorify

     Tilt every kindred Him confess.  Amen
