<p>Spirit of faith, come down, reveal the things of God,<br>
And make to us the Godhead known, and witness with the blood.<br>
&#8217;Tis Thine the blood to apply and give us eyes to see,<br>
Who did for every sinner die hath surely died for me.</p>
<p>No one can truly say that Jesus is the Lord,<br>
Unless Thou take the veil away and breathe the living Word.<br>
Then, only then, we feel our interest in His blood,<br>
And cry with joy unspeakable, &#8220;Thou art my Lord, my God!&#8221;</p>
<p>O that the world might know the all atoning Lamb!<br>
Spirit of faith, descend and show the virtue of His Name;<br>
The grace which all may find, the saving power, impart,<br>
And testify to humankind, and speak in every heart.</p>
<p>Inspire the living faith (which whosoever receive,<br>
The witness in themselves they have and consciously believe),<br>
The faith that conquers all, and doth the mountain move,<br>
And saves whoever on Jesus call, and perfects them in love.</p>
