Come, gracious Spirit, heavenly Dove
Author: Simon Browne (1680-1732) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 602 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, gracious Spirit, heavenly Dove,
with light and comfort from above;
come, be our Guardian, be our Guide,
o'er every thought and step preside.
2 The light of truth to us display,
and make us know and choose your way;
plant holy fear in every heart,
that we from God may ne'er depart.
3 Lead us to Christ, the living Way,
nor let us from his pastures stray;
lead us to holiness, the road
that we must take to dwell with God.
4 Lead us to heav'n, that we may share
fullness of joy for ever there;
lead us to God, our final rest,
to be with him for ever blest. Topics: The Holy Spirit The Coming of the Spirit; Christian Year Pentecost; Guidance; Heaven; Holy Spirit illunination of Scripture: Hebrews 12:14 Used With Tune: VERBUM SUPERNUM

O heavenly Word of God on high
The heavenly Word proceeding forth
Author: St Thomas Aquinas, 1227-74; J. M. Neale, 1818-66 Appears in 20 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The heavenly Word proceeding forth
Yet leaving not his Father’s side,
And going to his work on earth,
Had reached at length life’s eventide.
2 By false disciple to be given
To foemen for his blood athirst,
Himself, the living bread from heaven,
He gave to his disciples first.
3 In twofold form of sacrament,
He gave his flesh, he gave his blood,
That man, of soul and body blent,
Might wholly feed on mystic food.
4 In birth man's fellow-man was he,
His meat while sitting at the board;
He died, our ransomer to be,
He reigns to be our great reward.
Part 2 O salutaris hostia
5 O saving Victim, opening wide
The gate of heaven to man below;
Our foes press hard on every side,
Thine aid supply, thy strength bestow.
6 All praise and thanks to thee ascend
For evermore, blest One in Three;
O grant us life that shall not end,
In our true native land with thee. Amen. Topics: Sacraments and Other Rites Holy Communion; Office Hymn Corpus Christi Used With Tune: VERBUM SUPERNUM
