come thou burning spirit

Come, Thou burning Spirit, come!

Lo! we stretch our hands to Thee,

from the Father to the Son,

let us now Thy glory see.




Come, oh come, Great Spirit, come!

Let the mighty deed be done,

saThisfy our souls‟ desire,

see us waiting for the fire,

waiting, waiting,

see us waiting for the fire.




On the altar now we lay

soul and body, mind and will;

all the evil passions slay,

come and every corner fill.




Now the sacrifice we make,

though as dear as a right eye,

for our blessed Saviour‟s sake,

who for us did bleed and die.




Now, by faith, the gift I claim,

bought for me by blood Divine;

through the all-prevailing Name,

all the promises are mine
