Amidst a world of hopes and fears
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #185 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Whit-Sunday Lyrics: 1 Amidst a world of hopes and fears,
A world of cares, and toils, and tears,
Where foes alarm and dangers threat,
And pleasures kill, and glories cheat:
2 Send down, O Lord, a heavenly ray,
To guide me in the doubtful way;
And o'er me hold Thy shield of power,
To guard me in the dang'rous hour.
3 May never pleasure, wealth, or pride,
Allure my wand'ring soul aside;
But through this maze of mortal ill,
Safe lead me to Thy heavenly hill.
4 There glories shine, and pleasures roll,
That charm, delight, transport the soul,
And ev'ry longing wish shall be
Possess'd of boundless bliss in Thee. Languages: English

Let Thy light within me shine:
All my guilty fears remove;
Fill me with Thy heavenly love.
2 Speak Thy pard'ning grace to me;
Set the burden'd sinner free;
Lead me to the Lamb of God;
Wash me in His precious blood.
3 Life and peace to me impart;
Seal salvation on my heart;
Dwell Thyself into my breast,
Earnest of immortal rest.
4 Let me never from Thee stray,
Keep me in the narrow way;
Fill my soul with joy divine;
Keep me, Lord, forever Thine.

Holy Ghost, with light divine
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #187 (1870) Topics: Whit-Sunday Lyrics: 1 Holy Ghost, with light divine,
Shine upon this heart of mine!

Turn the darkness into day.
2 Let me see my Saviour's face,
Let me all His beauties trace;
Show those glorious truths to me
Which are only known to Thee.

Cleanse this guilty heart of mine;
Long has sin, without control,
Held dominion o'er my soul.
4 Holy Ghost, with joy divine,
Cheer this sadden'd heart of mine;
Bid my many woes depart,
Heal my wounded, bleeding heart.
5 Holy Spirit, all divine,
Dwell within this heart of mine;
Cast down ev'ry idol throne,
Reign supreme, and reign alone. Languages: English

Sure the blest Comforter is nigh
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #188 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Whit-Sunday Lyrics: 1 Sure the blest Comforter is nigh,
'Tis He sustains my fainting heart;
Else would my hope forever die,
And ev'ry cheering ray depart.
2 When some kind promise cheers my soul,
Do I not find His healing voice
The tempest of my fears control,
And bid my drooping powers rejoice?
3 What less than Thine almighty word
Can raise my heart from earth and dust,
And bid me cleave to Thee, my Lord,
My life, my treasure, and my trust?
4 And when my cheerful hope can say,
"I love my God, and taste His grace;"
Lord, is it not Thy blissful ray
Which brings this dawn of sacred peace?

Forever dwell, O God of love;
And light and heavenly peace impart,
Sweet earnest of the joys above. Languages: English

Why should the children of a King

Go mourning all their days?
Great Comforter, descend and bring
Some tokens of Thy grace.

And seal the heirs of heaven?
When wilt Thou banish my complaints,
And show my sins forgiven?

In my Redeemer’s blood,
And bear Thy witness, with my heart
That I am born of God.

The pledge of joys to come;
And Thy soft wings, celestial Dove,
Will safely bear me home. Languages: English

O Spirit of the living God
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #190 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Whit-Sunday Lyrics: 1 O Spirit of the living God,
In all Thy plenitude of grace,
Where'er the foot of man hath trod,
Descend on our apostate race.
2 Be darkness, at Thy coming, light,
Confusion, order, in Thy path:
Souls without strength inspire with might:
Bid mercy triumph over wrath.
3 Baptize the nations; far and nigh,
The triumphs of the cross record;
The name of Jesus glorify,
Till ev'ry kindred call Him Lord.
4 God from eternity hath will'd
All flesh shall His salvation see:
Se be the Father's love fulfill'd,
The Saviour's suff'rings crown'd though Thee. Languages: English
O Spirit of the living God
Let songs of praises fill the sky
Author: Thomas Cotterill Hymnal: Church Book #240 (1890) Topics: Whit-Sunday Lyrics: 1 Let songs of praises fill the sky:
Christ, our ascended Lord,
Sends down His Spirit from on high,
According to His Word:
All hail the day of Pentecost,
The coming of the Holy Ghost!
2 The Spirit by His heavenly breath,
Creates new life within;
He quickens sinners from the death
Of trespasses and sin:
All hail the day of Pentecost,
The coming of the Holy Ghost!
3 The things of Christ the Spirit takes,
And shows them unto men:
The fallen soul His temple makes;
God’s image stamps again:
All hail the day of Pentecost,
The coming of the Holy Ghost!
4 Come, Holy Spirit, from above
With Thy celestial fire;
Come, and with flames of zeal and love
Our hearts and tongues inspire!
Be this our day of Pentecost,
The coming of the Holy Ghost! Languages: English Tune Title: ST. THOMAS
Let songs of praises fill the sky
Lord God, the Holy Ghost!
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Church Book #241 (1890) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Whit-Sunday Lyrics: 1 Lord God, the Holy Ghost!
In this accepted hour,
As on the day of Pentecost,
Descend in all Thy power.
2 We meet with one accord
In our appointed place,
And wait the promise of our Lord,
The Spirit of all grace.
3 Like mighty rushing wind
Upon the waves beneath,
Move with one impulse every mind,
One soul, one feeling breathe.
4 The young, the old inspire
With wisdom from above;
And give us hearts and tongues of fire,
To pray, and praise, and love.
5 Spirit of light, explore,
And chase our gloom away;
With lustre shining more and more,
Unto the perfect day!
6 Spirit of truth, be Thou
In life and death our Guide;
O Spirit of adoption, now
May we be sanctified! Languages: English Tune Title: DOVER
Lord God, the Holy Ghost!
Day divine, when in the temple
Author: Thomas H. Gill Hymnal: Church Book #242 (1890) Meter: 8.7 Topics: Whit-Sunday Lyrics: 1 Day divine, when in the temple
To the first disciples came
Glory new and treasure ample,
Mighty gifts and tongues of flame!
Day to happy souls commended,
When the Holy Ghost was given,
When the Comforter descended,
Bringing down the joy of heaven!
2 Lord, to-day Thy people learneth
No new wonder, no strange tale;
Lord, to-day Thy people yearneth
Here the Holy Ghost to hail!
O'er again to write the story
Our weak trembling souls aspire:
Unto us may come the glory,
Full on us may fall the fire!
3 Hath the Holy ghost been holden
By those ancient saints alone?
Only may the ages olden
Call the Comforter their own?
Ah, their portion we inherit,
Ours the sorrow, ours the sin:
We beseech the Holy Spirit;
We the Comforter would win. Languages: English Tune Title: ADORATION
Day divine, when in the temple
Spirit of truth, on this Thy day
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #246 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Whit-Sunday Lyrics: 1 Spirit of truth, on this Thy day,
To Thee for help we cry,
To guide us through the dreary way
Of dark mortality.
2 We ask not, Lord, Thy cloven flame,
Or tongues of various tone;
But long Thy praises to proclaim,
With fervor in our own.
3 We mourn not that prophetic skill
Is found on earth no more;
Enough for us to trace Thy will
In Scripture’s sacred lore.
4 When tongues shall cease, and power decay,
And knowledge empty prove,
Do Thou Thy trembling servants stay,
With faith, with hope, and love. Languages: English
Spirit of truth, on this Thy day
