THE COMFORTER




Holy Ghost, the Infinite!
Shine upon our nature’s night
With thy blesséd inward light,
Comforter Divine!


We are sinful: cleanse us, Lord;
We are faint; thy strength afford;
Lost-—until by thee restored,
Comforter Divine!


Like the dew, thy peace distill;
Guide, subdue our wayward will,
Things of Christ unfolding still,
Comforter Divine!


In us, for us, intercede,
And, with voiceless groaning, plead
Our unutterable need,
Comforter Divine!


In us “Abba, Father,“ cry —
Earnest of our bliss on high,
Seal of immortality —
Comforter Divine!


Search for us the depths of God;
Bear us up the starry road,
To the height of thine abode,
Comforter Divine!
