Eternal Spirit! Praise we bring—
The wonders of Thy grace to sing;
Thy pow'r conveys our blessings down
From God the Father and the Son.
Enlightened by Thy heav'nly ray,
Our shades and darkness turn to day;
Thine inward teachings make us view
Our danger and our refuge, too.
Thy pow'r and glory work within,
And break the chains of reigning sin;
Do our imperious lusts subdue,
And form our wretched hearts anew.
The troubled conscience knows Thy voice,
Thy cheering words our hearts rejoice;
At Thy blest Word life's storms are calm,
And troubled minds find heav'nly balm.
