Holy Ghost, Come Down upon Thy Children
Author: Frederick Faber Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2367 Meter: Irregular Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: For all within us good and holy Lyrics: Refrain
Holy Ghost, come down upon Thy children,
Give us grace and make us Thine;
Thy tender fires within us kindle,
Blessèd Spirit, Dove divine.
1. For all within us good and holy
Is from Thee, Thy precious gift;
In all our joys, in all our sorrows,
Wistful hearts to Thee we lift. [Refrain]
2. For Thou to us art more than Father,
More than sister, in Thy love,
So gentle, patient, and forbearing,
Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove. [Refrain]
3. O we have grieved Thee, gracious Spirit!
Wayward, wanton, cold are we;
And still our sins, new every morning,
Never yet have wearied Thee. [Refrain]
4. Ah! Sweet Consoler, though we cannot
Love Thee as Thou lovest us,
Yet if Thou deign’st our hearts to kindle
They will not be always thus. [Refrain]
5. With hearts so vile how dare we venture,
King of kings, to love Thee so?
And how canst Thou, with such compassion,
Bear so long with things so low? [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: BOSSINEY
Holy Ghost, Come Down upon Thy Children
