140. Spirit of mercy, truth, and love
1 Spirit of mercy, truth, and love,
O shed Thine influence from above,
And still from age to age convey
The wonders of this sacred day.
2 In every clime, by every tongue,
Be God's surpassing glory sung:
Let all the listening earth be taught
The wonders by our Saviour wrought.
3 Unfailing Comfort, heavenly Guide,
Still o'er Thy Holy Church preside;
Still let mankind Thy blessings prove,
Spirit of mercy, truth, and love.
Amen.
