Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #481a (1908) Lyrics: 1 Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove,
With all Thy quickening pow'rs;
Kindle a flame of sacred love
In these cold hearts of ours.
2 Look how we grovel here below,
Fond of these earthly toys;
Our souls, how heavily they go,
To reach eternal joys!
3 Dear Lord, and shall we ever live
At this poor, dying rate?
Our love so cold, so faint to thee,
and Thine to us so great?
4 Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove,
With all Thy quickening powers;
Come, shed abroad a Savior's love,
and that shall kindle ours. Topics: The Church Year Pentecost; Whitsunday; Fourth Sunday after Easter Languages: English Tune Title: ST. AGNES (Durham)
