Come, Holy Spirit, Calm My Mind

Come

Ho­ly Spir­it

calm my mind

And fit me to ap­proach my God;

Remove each vain

each world­ly thought

And lead me to Thy blest ab­ode.

Hast Thou im­part­ed to my soul

A liv­ing spark of heav­en­ly fire?

O kin­dle now the sac­red flame;

Teach it to burn with pure de­sire.

Impress upon my wan­der­ing mind

The love that Christ for sin­ners bore;

And give a new

a con­trite heart

A heart the Sav­ior to adore.

A bright­er faith and hope im­part

And let me now the Sav­ior see;

O soothe and cheer my bur­dened heart

And bid my spir­it rest in Thee.
