Come, O Come, Thou Quickening Spirit (EN 4400)

EN 4400 Come, O Come, Thou Quickening Spirit

John.14.16

Versi Version 1

1

Come, O come, Thou quickening Spirit,

God from all eternity!

May Thy power never fail us;

Dwell within us constantly.

Then shall truth and life and light

Banish all the gloom of night.

2

Grant our hearts in fullest measure

Wisdom, counsel, purity,

That we ever may be seeking

Only that which pleaseth Thee.

Let Thy knowledge spread and grow,

Working error’s overthrow.

3

Show us, Lord, the path of blessing;

When we trespass on our way,

Cast, O Lord, our sins behind Thee,

And be with us day by day.

Should we stray, O Lord, recall;

Work repentance when we fall.

4

With our spirit bear Thou witness

That we are the sons of God

Who rely upon Him solely

When we pass beneath the rod;

For we know, as children should,

That the cross is for our good.

5

Prompt us, Lord, to come before Him

With a childlike heart to pray;

Sigh in us, O Holy Spirit,

When we know not what to say.

Then our prayer is not in vain,

And our faith new strength shall gain.

6

If our soul can find no comfort,

If despondency grows strong,

And the heart cries out in anguish,

“Oh my God, how long, how long?”

Comfort then our aching breast,

Grant it courage, patience, rest.

7

Holy Spirit, strong and mighty,

Thou Who makest all things new,

Make Thy work within us perfect

And the evil foe subdue.

Grant us weapons for the strife

And with victory crown our life.

8

Guard, O God, our faith forever;

Let not Satan, death or shame

Ever part us from our Savior;

Lord our refuge is Thy Name.

Though our flesh cry ever: Nay!

Be Thy Word to us still Yea!

9

And when life’s frail thread is breaking,

Then assure us more and more,

As the heirs of life unending,

Of the glory there in store,

Glory never yet expressed,

Glory of the saints at rest.
