Text: | Spirit of mercy, truth, and love |
Tune: | OMBERSLEY |
Composer: | William Henry Gladstone, 1840 - 91 |
1 Spirit of mercy, truth, and love,
O shed thine influence from above,
And still from age to age convey
The wonders of this sacred day. A-men.
2 In every clime, by every tongue,
Be God's surpassing glory sung;
Let all the listening earth be taught
The wonders by our Saviour wrought.
3 Unfailing Comfort, heavenly Guide,
Still o'er thy holy Church preside;
Still let mankind thy blessings prove,
Spirit of mercy, truth, and love.
Amen.
