Refreshment Request

orchidee



Tune: Hawkhurst

('Come, gracious Spirit, heavenly dove')

**********

Come to us, Lord, where dry we be

And meet our thirst refreshingly

Water of life, land of our heart

Come fulfil us in every part

 

The promised rain send to renew

Supplies they all depend on you

Without you we parched and arid

As if a desert place amid

 

Then watered we be, not dull, dry

Nor dingy, dusty, by and by

Your Spirit in us still resides

E'en when at times seems subdued, hides

 

Our own inspirings from your grace

And so to bless others, we trace

For we your witnesses freely

By your renewing we now be
