Spirit of God, descend upon my heart
Author: George Croly, 1780-1869 Hymnal: TBP1997 #382 (1997) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 Spirit of God, descend upon my heart;
wean it from earth; through all its pulses move.
Stoop to my weakness, mighty as thou art,
and make me love thee as I ought to love.
2 I ask no dream, no prophet ecstasies,
no sudden rending of the veil of clay,
no angel messenger, no opening skies;
but take the dimness of my soul away.
3 Hast thou not bid me love thee, God and King?
All, all thine own, soul, heart and strength and mind;
I see thy cross; there teach my heart to cling:
oh let me seek thee and oh let me find.
4 Teach me to feel that thou art always nigh;
teach me the struggles of the soul to bear,
to face the rising doubt, the rebel sigh;
teach me the patience of unanswered prayer.
5 Teach me to love thee as thine angels love,
one holy passion filling all my frame:
the baptism of the heaven descended Dove,
my heart an altar and thy love the flame. Topics: Cross; Doubt; Dove; Fire / Flame; God the Holy Spirit; Longing for God and Christ; Love Scripture: Isaiah 11:2-3 Languages: English Tune Title: MORECAMBE

seek now this soul of mine,
and visit it with your own ardour glowing;
O Comforter, draw near,
within my heart appear,
and kindle it, your holy flame bestowing.
2 Oh let it freely burn,
till earthly passions turn
to dust and ashes in its heat consuming,
and let your glorious light
shine ever on my sight,
and clothe me round, the while my path illuming.
3 Let holy charity
mine outward vesture be,
and lowliness become mine inner clothing,
true lowliness of heart,
which takes the humbler part,
and pride in earthly glory scorns with loathing.
4 And so the yearning strong,
with which the soul will long,
shall far out-pass the power of human telling,
for none can guess its grace,
till we become the place
wherein the Holy Spirit makes a dwelling. Topics: Fire / Flame; God the Holy Spirit; Holy Spirit Illuminator / Teacher; Holy Spirit Comforter; Longing for God and Christ Scripture: John 14:26 Languages: English Tune Title: DOWN AMPNEY
