HYMN 16.

Come gracious Spirit, heavenly Dove,
With light and comfort from above;
Be Thou our guardian, Thou our guide,
O'er ev'ry thought and step preside.

The light of truth to us display,
And make us know and love Thy way;
Plant holy fear in ev'ry heart,
That we from God may ne'er depart.

Lead us to holiness, the road,
The narrow road which leads to God;
Bring us to Christ, the living Way,
Nor let us from Him ever stray.

Lead us to God, our only rest,
To be with Him for ever blest;
Lead us to Heav'n, its bliss to share,
Fulness of joy for ever there.
