Come, Holy ghost, our hearts inspire;
Let us thy influence prove,
Source of the old prophetic fire,
Fountain of life and love.

Come, Holy Ghost; for moved by Thee,
The prophets wrote and spoke
Unlock the truth, Thyself the key.
Unseal the Sacred book.

Expand Thy wings, celestial Dove;
Brood o’er our nature s night,
On our disordered spirits move,
And let there now be light.

God, through Himself, we then shall know
lf Thou within us shine,
And sound with all Thy saints below,
The depths of love divine.
