Eternal Spirit, by whose power
Our souls are raised from death,
Be this for us a favoured hour,
A time of love and faith.
‘Tis thine to comfort the distressed,
To raise up those who fall;
To give the weak and troubled rest,
And sanctify us all.
‘Tis thine to write God’s Holy Word,
On every willing heart;
By it all wisdom to afford,
All grace and strength impart.
Help then thy waiting people thus,
Lead us to love and praise,
And ever henceforth dwell in us,
To govern all our ways.
