Who, but thou, almighty Spirit,
Can the heathen world reclaim?
Men may preach, but till thou favor,
Heathens will be still the same:
|: Mighty Spirit! :|
Witness to the Saviour's name.
Thou hast promised by the prophets.
Glorious light in latter days:
Come and bless bewildered nations,
Change our prayers and tears to praise;
|: Promised Spirit! :|
Round the world diffuse thy rays.
All our hopes, and prayers, and labors
Must be vain without thine aid:
But thou wilt not disappoint us—
All is true that thou hast said:
|: Faithful Spirit! :|
O'er the world thine influence shed.
