Come, Holy Ghost, Our Hearts Inspire Songtext
Come, Holy Ghost, our hearts inspire,
Let us thine influence prove;
Source of the old prophetic fire,
Fountain of life and love.
Come, Holy Ghost - for, moved by thee,
Thy prophets wrote and spoke -
Unlock the truth, thyself the key,
Unseal the sacred book.
Expand thy wings, celestial Dove,
Brood o'er our nature's night;
On our disordered spirits move,
And let there now be light.
God, through himself, we then shall know,
If thou within us shine;
And sound, with all thy saints below,
The depths of love divine.
Let us thine influence prove;
Source of the old prophetic fire,
Fountain of life and love.
Come, Holy Ghost - for, moved by thee,
Thy prophets wrote and spoke -
Unlock the truth, thyself the key,
Unseal the sacred book.
Expand thy wings, celestial Dove,
Brood o'er our nature's night;
On our disordered spirits move,
And let there now be light.
God, through himself, we then shall know,
If thou within us shine;
And sound, with all thy saints below,
The depths of love divine.
