62 Ode to God the Holy Spirit

62.

Ode to God the Holy Spirit



Almighty God our Watcher

We bow to You forever

You're alone our prime master!



Thy breath is source of our life

Thy light spurs our sacred strife

Thy grace eternally rife



Thy wings spread all throughout

The universe which Thee clout

Against prying evil's snout



Thy eyes constantly watchful

On everything deem sinful

For Thy righteousness must rule



Thy words are like swords of fire

Striking pain on wrong desire

Useful virtue we acquire



God's manifest of control

Fill with goodness every soul

Steer us, Your faithful people!
