Tune: Christchurch
(\'Now is eternal life\')
*********
Spirit, rise up in me
Free from captivity
Where dull, dreary may be
Help us your true light see
Life of God, Person here within
Our hearts, come cleanse us from our sin
Revive, restore, we pray
And do forgive each day
Where we fail and fall short
Or give you little thought
Content to know your love, to rest
In you, and find your peace, we blessed
Breaking up fallow ground
Where unyielding soil found
So productive for you
We shall be fruitful too
Gifts and fruit of you, Spirit, show
While we on earth, this time below
Grant favour and your grace
To all of every race
To recover, prosper
As we to duties stir
At work, at home, whatever place
Whate\'er situations we face
In troubles here to turn
To you, and your ways learn
Light through the darkness shine
\'Tis your presence divine
Shall lead us, each step that we take
To grow in Christ, for His name\'s sake
