Come, Holy Spirit, O come Come, Holy Spirit, to me Upon my heart Spirit of God, descend upon my heart Wean it from earth, through all its pulses move Stoop to my weakness, mighty as Thou art And make me love Thee To love Thee as I ought to love Hast Thou not bid us love Thee, God and King? All, all Thine own–soul, heart and strength and mind I see Thy cross–there teach my heart to cling O let me seek Thee, and O let me find Teach me to feel that Thou art always nigh Teach me the struggles of the soul to bear To check the rising doubt, the rebel sigh Teach to me the patience of unanswered prayer Come, Holy Spirit, O come Come, Holy Spirit, to me Teach me to love Thee as Thine angels love One holy passion filling all my frame The baptism of the heav'n-descended Dove My heart an altar, an altar And Thy love the flame
