GRH 552 Come, Holy Spirit, Dove Divine

(1)
Come, Holy Spirit, Dove divine,
On these baptismal waters shine,
And teach our hearts, in highest strain,
To praise the Lamb for sinners slain.

(2)
We love Thy name, we love Thy laws,
And joyfully embrace Thy cause;
We love Thy cross, the shame, the pain,
O Lamb of God, for sinners slain.

(3)
We sink beneath the water’s face;
And thank Thee for Thy saving grace;
We die to sin, and seek a grave
With Thee beneath the yielding wave.

(4)
And as we rise with Thee to live,
O let the Holy Spirit give
The sealing unction from above,
The Joy of life, the fire of love.
