William Boyce - Come, Holy Ghost - текст песни (слова)

Come, Holy Ghost, our souls inspire 
 And warm them with thy heav'nly fire. 
 Thou who th'anointing Spirit art, 
 To us thy Sev'nfold gifts impart. 
 Let thy blest Unction from above 
 Be to us comfort, Life and Love. 
 
 Enable with Celestial light
 The weakness of our mortal sight.
 Anoint and cheer our hearts, our face,
 with the abundance of thy Grace. 
 Keep far our Foes, give Peace at home,
 Where thou dost dwell no ill can come. 
 
 Teach us to know the Father, Son, 
 and Spirit of both, to be but one,
 That so through Ages all along 
 This may be our triumphant Song: 
 In Thee, O Lord, we make our boast,
 Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
