COME, Holy Ghost, our hearts inspire,
By A Collection of Hymns

      C.M. Before Reading the Scriptures.
      1 COME, Holy Ghost, our hearts inspire,
      Let us thine influence prove,
      Source of the old prophetic fire,
      Fountain of light and love.

      2 Come, Holy Ghost, (for moved by thee
      The prophets wrote and spoke)
      Unlock the truth, thyself the key,
      Unseal the sacred book.

      3 Expand thy wings, celestial Dove,
      Brood o'er our nature's night;
      On our disordered spirits move,
      And let there now be light.

      4 God, through himself, we then shall know,
      If thou within us shine,
      And sound, with all thy saints below,
      The depths of love divine.
