Spirit of Faith, Come Down

Spirit of faith

come down

Reveal the things of God

And make to us the God­head known

And wit­ness with the blood.

’Tis Thine the blood to ap­ply

And give us eyes to see

Who did for ev­ery sin­ner die

Hath sure­ly died for me.

No man can tru­ly say

That Je­sus is the Lord

Unless Thou take the veil away

And breathe the liv­ing Word.

Then

on­ly then

we feel

Our in­ter­est in His blood

And cry with joy un­speak­able

Thou art my Lord

my God!

O that the world might know

The all aton­ing Lamb!

Spirit of faith

des­cend and show

The vir­tue of His name;

The grace which all may find

The sav­ing pow­er

im­part

And tes­ti­fy to all man­kind

And speak in ev­ery heart.

Inspire the liv­ing faith

(Which who­so­ev­er re­ceive

The wit­ness in them­selves they have

And con­scious­ly be­lieve)

The faith that con­quers all

And doth the mount­ain move

And saves who­ev­er on Je­sus call

And per­fects them in love.
