R. Come, Spirit of holiness,
Come, Spirit of light,
Come, Spirit of fire,
Come, set us ablaze !
1. Come, Spirit of God,
Light of our souls,
With splendour and glory
Shine in our lives.
2. Come, spring of new life,
Heal all our ills,
Give strength to our bodies,
Joy to our hearts
3. Come, bring your delight,
Touch all our cares,
Gladly let us sing
The song of the Lamb.
4. Come, teach us your love,
Gift of the Father,
Come, show us the face
Of Christ living now.
5. Come, fire and light,
Come, breath of life,
Help us to proclaim
The cross of the Lord.
6. Come, Spirit of truth,
Teach us to sing
Christ is alive and
Ris’n from the dead.
