O Spirit of the living God,
in all the fullness of thy grace
Where’er the foot of man hath trod,
Descend on our apostate race.
Give tongues of fire and hearts of love
To preach the reconciling Word,
Give power and unction from above,
Whene’er the joyful sound is heard.
Be darkness, at Thy coming, light;
Confusion, order in Thy path;
Souls without strength
inspire with might;
Bid mercy triumph over wrath.
O Spirit of the Lord, prepare
All the round earth her 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 every kindred call Him Lord.
God from eternity hath willed
All flesh shall His salvation see:
So be the Father’s love fulfilled,
The Savior’s sufferings
crowned through Thee.
---Alternative verses---
O Spirit of the living God,
in all thy plenitude of grace,
where'er the foot of man hath trod,
descend on our apostate race.
O Spirit of the living God,
in all the plenitude of grace,
where'er the foot of man hath trod,
descend on our benighted race.
Give tongues of fire and hearts of love
To preach the reconciling Word,
And every obstancle remove,
Where’er the joyful sound is heard.
Be darkness, at Thy coming, light;
Life, love, nd joy, attend Thy path;
And save by thy restistless might;
The slaves of sin and heirs of wrath.
Convert the heathen e'er they die;
New triumphs to the truth afford;
Tthe Name of Jesus glorify,
And make the nations own their Lord.
Convert the nations! far and nigh
the triumphs of the cross record;
the Name of Jesus glorify,
till every people call him Lord.
