Blest Comforter Divine

Author: Lydia H. Sigourney Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 160 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1. Blest Comforter divine, Whose rays of heav’nly love Amid our gloom and darkness shine, And guide our souls above; 2. Thou, who with still small voice Dost stop the sinner’s way, And bid the mourning saint rejoice, Though earthly joys decay; 3. Thou, whose inspiring breath Can make the cloud of care, And e’en the gloomy vale of death, A smile of glory wear; 4. Thou, who dost fill the heart With love to all our race; Blest Comforter, to us impart The blessings of Thy grace. Used With Tune: WOOLWICH Text Sources: Village Hymns, by Asahel Nettleton, 1824
