Spirit Divine, attend our prayers,
And make this house thy home;
Descend with all thy gracious powers,
O come, Great Spirit, come.

2 Come as the light; to us reveal
Our emptiness and woe:
And lead us in those paths of life,
Where all the righteous go.

3 Come as the fire, and purge our hearts
Like sacrificial flame;
Let our whole soul an offering be
To our Redeemer's name.

4 Come as the dew, and sweetly bless
This consecrated hour;
May barrenness rejoice to own
Thy fertilizing power.

5 Come as the dove, and spread thy wings,
The wings of peaceful love;
And let thy church on earth become
Bless'd as the church above.

6 Spirit Divine, attend our prayers;
Make a lost world thy home;
Descend with all thy gracious powers,
O come Great Spirit, come.
