1 Descend, O flame of sacred fire,
Now may we feel Thy quickening power;
To purest love each heart inspire,
And keep us in each trying hour.

2 Come like a rushing wind, we pray,
And let Thy presence fill this place;
Oh, take our unbelief away,
Baptize us with Thy boundless grace.

3 Come down from Heaven, O quenchless flame,
Through Christ, the everlasting Son;
The riches of His love proclaim,
And melt our every heart in one.
