�� ��James Montcomerv (17T1-18'.4).
O SPIRIT of the living God ! In all thy plenitude of grace, Where'er the foot of man hath trod, Descend on our apostate race !
Give tongues of fire and hearts of love, To preach the reconciling word ;
Give power and unction from above Whene'er the joyful sound is heard.
Be darkness, at thy coming, light ;
Confusion, order in thy path ; Souls without strength inspire with might,
Bid mercy triumph over wrath.
Spirit of the Lord ! prepare All the round earth her God to meet :
Breathe thou abroad like morning air. Till hearts of stone begin to beat.
Baptize the nations ; far and nigh The triumphs of the cross record ;
The name of Jesus glorify.
Till every kindred call him Lord. 185
