Author: Joseph Hart Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #460 (1930) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: American Lutheran Hymnal Lyrics: 1 Come, Holy Spirit, come;
Let Thy bright beams arise;
Dispel the sorrow from our minds,
The darkness from our eyes.
2 Convince us all of sin,
Then lead to Jesus’ blood,
And to our wond’ring view reveal
The mercies of our God.
3 Revive our drooping faith,
Our doubts and fears remove,
And kindle in our breasts the flame
Of never-dying love.
4 ’Tis Thine to cleanse the heart,
To sanctify the soul,
To pour fresh life in ev'ry part
And new-create the whole.
5 Dwell, Spirit, in our hearts;
Our minds from bondage free;
Then we shall know and praise and love
The Father, Son, and Thee.
Amen.
