Come, Thou Burning Spirit, Come

Verse 1

Come, thou burning Spirit, come; Lo! we stretch our hands to thee; From the Father and the Son Let us now thy glory see.

Chorus

Come, O come great Spirit, come! Let the mighty deed be done; Satisfy our soul’s desire, Now we trust thee for the fire.

Verse 2

On the altar now we lay Soul and body, mind and will; All the evil passions slay, Come and every corner fill.

Verse 3

Now the sacrifice we make, Though as dear as a right eye, For our blessèd Saviour’s sake Who for us did bleed and die.

Verse 4

Now by faith the gift I claim, Bought for me by blood divine, Through the all-prevailing name All the promises are mine.
