Lord God, the Holy Ghost, In this accepted hour, As on the day of Pentecost, Descend in all Thy power. We meet with one accord In our appointed place And wait the promise of our Lord, The Spirit of all grace. Like mighty rushing wind Upon the waves beneath, Move with one impulse every mind; One soul, one feeling breathe. The young, the old inspire With wisdom from above; And give us hearts and tongues of fire, To pray, and praise, and love. Spirit of light, explore And chase our gloom away, With luster shining more and more Unto the perfect day.
