Spirit of power and might, behold

Verse 1

Almighty Spirit, now behold A world by sin destroyed! Creative spirit, as of old Move on the formless void!

Verse 2

Give Thou the word—the healing sound Shall quell the deadly strife, And earth again, like Eden crowned, Bring forth the tree of life.

Verse 3

If sang the morning stars for joy When nature rose to view, What strains shall angel harps employ, When Thou shalt all renew!
