O Spirit of the living God,
in all thy plenitude of grace,
Where’er the foot of man hath trod,
Descend on our rebellious race.

Give tongues of fire and hearts of love
to preach the reconciling word;
Give pow'r and unction from above,
Whene'er the joyful sound is heard.

O Spirit of the Lord, prepare
All men of earth their God to meet;
Breathe thou abroad like morning air,
Till hearts of stone begin to beat.

Baptize the nations far and nigh;
The triumphs of the cross record;
The name of Jesus glorify,
Till ev'ry kindred call him Lord.
