O Holy Spirit, grant us grace That we our Lord and Savior In faith and fervent love embrace And truly serve Him ever, So that when death is drawing nigh, We to His open wounds may fly And find in them salvation. Help us that we Thy saving Word In faithful hearts may treasure; Let e'er that Bread of Life afford New grace in richest measure. Yea, let us die to every sin, For Heav'n create us new within That fruits of faith may flourish. And when our earthly race is run, Death's bitter hour impending, Then may Thy work in us begun Continue until life's ending. Until we gladly may commend Our souls into our Savior's hand To rest in peace eternal.
