With grateful heart we give thee praise,
Thou gracious author of our days;
Thy glorious goodness we adore,
Oh, may we love thee more and more.
With holy, humble, fervent, love,
Such as thy angels feel above,
May we thy matchless love confess,
And triumph in thy holiness.
Send forth thy mighty Spirit, Lord,
That all who hear may feel thy word;
And those who now are slaves of sin,
May a new life this day begin.
Send forth thy Spirit, Lord, that they
Who never prayed may learn to pray;
The proud and light their danger see,
And yield at once their hearts to thee.
Oh, send him forth to guide the meek,
To cheer the sad, to help the weak;
And give the doubting, steadfast faith,
To trust whate’er thy scripture saith.
So gracious God thy converts gain,
O’er many a yielding sinner reign;
By dying souls life may be found,
And joy in all our hearts abound.
