Spirit divine, attend our prayers
Author: A. Reed Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 393 hymnals Topics: Whitsuntide; Processionals Whitsuntide; Whitsuntide Lyrics: 1 Spirit divine, attend our prayers,
And make this house Thy home;
Descend with all Thy gracious powers,
Oh, come, great Spirit, come!
2 Come as the light; to us reveal
Our emptiness and woe:
And lead us in those paths of life
Where all the righteous go.
3 Come as the fire, and purge our hearts
Like sacrificial flame;
Let our whole soul an offering be
To our Redeemer's Name.
4 Come as the dove, and spread Thy wings,
The wings of peaceful love;
And let Thy Church on earth become
Blest as Thy Church above.
5 Spirit divine, attend our prayers;
Make a lost world Thy home;
Descend with all Thy gracious powers,
Oh, come, great Spirit, come!

With all Thy quickening powers;
Kindle a flame of sacred love
In these cold hearts of ours.

Fond of these earthly toys:
Our souls, how heavily they go,
To reach eternal joys.
3 In vain we tune our lifeless songs,
In vain we strive to rise:
Hosannas languish on our tongues,
And our devotion dies.
5 Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove,
With all Thy quickening powers;
Come, shed abroad a Saviour's love,
And that shall kindle ours.

Our blest Redeemer, ere He breathed
Author: H. Auber Meter: 8.6.8.4 Appears in 560 hymnals Topics: Whitsuntide; Whitsuntide Lyrics: 1 Our blest Redeemer, ere He breathed
His tender, last farewell,
A Guide, a Comforter, bequeathed
With us to dwell.
2 He came sweet influence to impart,
A gracious, willing guest,
While He can find one humble heart
Wherein to rest.
3 And His that gentle voice we hear,
Soft as the breath of even,
That checks each thought, that calms each fear,
And speaks of heaven.
4 And every virtue we possess,
And every victory won,
And every thought of holiness,
Are His alone.
5 Spirit of purity and grace,
Our weakness, pitying, see:
O make our hearts Thy dwelling-place,
And worthier Thee.
Amen. Used With Tune: ST. CUTHBERT

Vouchsafe within our souls to rest;
Come with Thy grace and heavenly aid,
And fill the hearts which Thou hast made.
2 To Thee, the Comforter, we cry:
To Thee, the gift of God Most High;
O fount of life, the fire of love,
The soul's anointing from above.
3 The sacred sevenfold grace is Thine,
Dread Finger of the Hand divine:
The promise of the Father Thou!
Who dost the tongue with power endow.
4 Thy light to every sense impart,
And shed Thy love in every heart;
Thine own unfailing might supply
To strengthen our infirmity.
5 Drive far away our ghostly foe,
And Thine abiding peace bestow,
If Thou be our preventing guide,
No evil can our steps betide.
Amen. Used With Tune: [Come, Holy Ghost, Creator blest] Text Sources: 10th Cent.; Other translators also
