Fits tune of same hymn name:
'I clasp the hand of love divine'
********
On in Christ's way, the light of day
I go with His presence alway
His Spirit promised for each our
Enduing me with power
Chorus
Come, Holy Spirit, aid
Me, Christ the price has paid
For me, and you the Comforter
Are sent now from Him sure
Where love goes dim, inspire me, do
With love for you, and Christ anew
And for the Father, God of all
He hears who on Him call - Chrous
Spontaneous, and yet the stream
Of consciousness with good its theme
Meditates now a while on you
Only good, only true - Chorus
Forgive where desires turn faint, low
Wind, breath of your Spirit, do blow
As days of old Ezekiel
Strong army you did call - Chorus
Taking our part now by your grace
Love, mercy, truth, all interlace
We all a part, Christ's body we
His church, His people be - Chorus
Spirit inspire strong confidence
That we may rise and go forth hence
Not in our strength, but by your hand (Spirit)
Evangel each land - Chorus
For that the final witness be
When gospel preached to each land, see
To give all opportunity
To be saved, redeemed, free - Chorus
The Christ shall be seen to reign o'er
All heaven and earth for evermore
Kingdom of love, peace, joy shall be
E'en for eternity - Chorus
