Come down, O Love divine
Author: Bianco da Siena (d. 1434); Richard Frederick Littledale (1833-1890) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #238a (2013) Meter: 6.6.11 D Topics: Holy Spirit as Comforter Lyrics: 1 Come down, O Love divine,
seek thou this soul of mine,
and visit it with thine own ardour glowing;
O Comforter, draw near,
within my heart appear,
and kindle it, thy holy flame bestowing.
2 O let it freely burn,
till earthly passions turn
to dust and ashes in its heat consuming;
and let thy 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 o'er its own shortcomings weeps with loathing.
4 And so the yearning strong,
with which the soul will long,
shall far outpass the power of human telling;
for none can guess its grace,
till he become the place
wherein the Holy Spirit makes his dwelling. Scripture: John 13:31-35 Languages: English Tune Title: DOWN AMPNEY

Let me be Thine forever
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #240 (1898) Meter: 7.6 Topics: Holy Ghost Comforter Lyrics: 1 Let me be Thine forever,
My gracious God and Lord,
May I forsake Thee never,
Nor wander from Thy Word:
Preserve me from the mazes
Of error and distrust,
And I shall sing Thy praises
Forever with the just.

Of light and life divine,
Thou didst my soul deliver,
To thee I all resign;
Thou hast in mercy bought me
With blood and bitter pain:
Let me, since Thou hast sought me,
Eternal life obtain.
3 And Thou, O Holy Spirit,
My Comforter and Guide,
In my Redeemer's merit
Let ever me confide,
His holy name confessing.
Help me when death draws nigh;
Grant me Thy constant blessing,
And save me when I die.

But that God can in mercy pardon
Thro' Jesus Christ, His Son. (Chorus)

Thy coming wakes the heart to song.

Let human hearts with love o'erflow;
And, when our feeble flesh would fail,
May thine immortal strength prevail.

Grant us in peace henceforth to dwell;
Ill shall not come, nor harm betide,
If only thou wilt be our Guide.

Thee will we trust and thee adore.

All highest strength, all purest love,
The rushing of the mighty wind,
The brooding of the gentle dove.

And urge us on, and make us thine;
Nor leave the hearts that once were made
Fit temples for thy grace divine.

But still with softest breathings stir
Our wayward souls, and lead us right,
O Holy Ghost, the Comforter.

And He bore me to His fold.

In the shelter of His love;
Not a doubt or fear,
Since my Lord is near,
And I'm sheltered in His love.

To the shelter of His love;
Of His grace and will He taught me,
And of heav'nly rest above. (Chorus)

I am safe, for He is near;
Never shall my foes confound me,
While the Savior's voice I hear. (Chorus) Scripture: Exodus 33:22 Languages: English Tune Title: [I was straying when Christ found me]

Built over earth and sea,
Accept the walls that human hands
Have raised, O God, to Thee.

Thy Holy Spirit, meet
With those who here in worship bend
Before Thy mercy-seat.
3 May they who err be guided here
To find the better way;
And they who mourn and they who fear
Be strengthened as they pray.
4 May faith grow firm, and love grow warm,
And hallowed wishes rise,
While round these peaceful walls the storm
Of earth-born passion dies.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: LAMBETH
Thou, Whose Unmeasured Temple Stands
