Text: | Away with our fears |
Author: | C. Wesley (1707-1788) |
Tune: | ARDWICK |
Composer: | H. J. Gauntlett (1805-1876) |
1 Away with our fears,
our troubles and tears:
the Spirit is come,
the witness of Jesus returned to his home.
2 Our advocate there
by his death and his prayer
the gift has obtained,
for us he has prayed, and the Comforter gained.
3 Our glorified Lord
has given his word
that his Spirit will stay,
and never again will be taken away.
4 Our heavenly guide
with us shall abide,
His comforts impart,
and set up his kingdom of love in our heart.
5 The heart that believes
his kingdom receives,
his power and his peace,
his life, and his joy’s everlasting increase.
