Tune: Richmond

('City of God, how broad and far')

********

Spirit of God, eternal flame

And holy is your name

Turn us to you, come hear our prayer

That we your goodness share

 

Come help, revive, restore, forgive

For 'tis through you we live

A unity, the Father, Son

And Spirit, Three in One

 

Equip, inspire, th gospel to

Spread with all folk in view

Evangelise the message plain

Resound the true refrain

 

'Til one day new heavens and earth

By you be brought to birth

You reign through all eternity

Unfettered, wholesome, free

 

This your plan, purpose in your love

Teach us Spirit, pure dove

Of Christ's love for a lost mankind

In you life all may find

 

For His death, then rising again

Forgiveness for all men (humankind)

And life eternal, promise sure

We dwell with Him e'ermore
