Come, Holy Spirit, like a dove descending,
rest now upon us while we meet to pray;
show us the Saviour, his great love revealing,
lead us to him, the Life, the Truth, the Way.
2. Come, Holy Spirit, every cloud dispelling;
fill us with gladness, through the Master’s name:
bring to our memory words that he has spoken;
then shall our tongues his saving grace proclaim.
3. Come, Holy Spirit, sent from God the Father,
O Friend and Teacher, Counsellor and Guide;
our thoughts directing, keep us close to Jesus,
and in our hearts for evermore abide.
