Eternal Spirit, source of good,
Too little known or understood,
Thy saving gifts to us dispense,
And bless us with thine influence.
Form every faculty anew,
Our lusts restrain, our hearts subdue;
Our fears suppress, our guilt remove,
Inspire with zeal, enflame with love.
Let all our powers to thee submit,
And bow adoring at thy feet;
Thy holy light may we receive,
And mourn whene’er Thyself we grieve.
Thus will we bless thy name, oh Lord,
And thine efficient grace record;
Thou with the Father and the Son,
Art One in three and Three in one.
