Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove
25 C.M. Isaac Watts Breathing after the Holy Spirit. Ps. 44. 25, 26 1 Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove, With thy all-quickening powers; Kindle a flame of sacred love In these cold hearts of ours. 2 Look how we grovel here below, Fond of these trifling toys; Our souls can neither fly nor go, To reach eternal joys. 3 In vain we tune our formal songs, In vain we strive to rise; Hosannas languish on our tongues, And our devotion dies. 4 Dear Lord, and shall we ever live At this poor dying rate? Our love so faint, so cold to thee, And thine to us so great? 5 Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove, With thy all-quickening powers; Come shed abroad a Saviour’s love, And that shall kindle ours.
