Text: | O Spirit |
Author: | James Montgomery |
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 power and unction from above,
Whene'er the joyful sound is heard.
3 Be darkness, at Thy coming, light,
Confusion, order in Thy path;
Souls without strength inspire with might;
Bid mercy triumph over wrath.
4 Baptize the nations: far and nigh
The triumphs of the cross record;
The name of Jesus glorify,
Till every kindred call Him Lord.
