Spirit divine, attend our prayer, And make this house your home; Descend with all your gracious pow'r; O come, great Spirit, come!
Verse 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.
Verse 3
Come as the fire and purge our hearts Like sacrificial flame; Let our whole soul an off'ring be To our Redeemer's name.
Verse 4
Come as the dove, and spread your wings, The wings of peaceful love; And let your Church on earth become Blest as the Church above.
Verse 5
Spirit divine, attend our prayer; Make a lost world your home; Descend with all your gracious pow'r; O come, great Spirit, come!
