O HOLY SPIRIT, HEAR OUR PRAYER

(Tune: When I Survey   #118 LM)

 

O Holy Spirit, hear our prayer:

Descend in grace, with saving power;

Convict, awaken and give faith

To helpless sinners born in death.

 

No other power can bring down

From God the Father and the Son

The blessings of eternal grace,

Forgiveness, peace and righteousness.

 

O Holy Spirit, shed Your light

Into our hearts, dispel our night;

Reveal Christ Jesus, our dear Lord

As God's servant proclaims His Word.

 

Invade our hearts and work within;

Subdue our vile, indwelling sin;

More of our Savior let us know;

Make us in faith and grace to grow.
