Come down, O love divine, seek Thou this soul of mine,
Dm F G - C
And visit it with Thine own ardor glowing.
F C/E Gm Dm - C - G
O Comforter, draw near, within my heart appear,
C/E F G - [ C – F (x2) ]
And kindle it, Thy holy flame bestowing.
C F C Am F G
O let it freely burn, til earthly passions turn
Dm F G - C
To dust and ashes in its heat consuming;
F C/E Gm Dm - C - G
And let Thy glorious light shine ever on my sight,
C/E F G [ C – F (x2) ]
And clothe me round, the while my path illuming.

Let holy charity mine outward vesture be,
Dm F G - C
And lowliness become mine inner clothing;

True lowliness of heart, which takes the humbler part,
C/E F G [ C – F (x2) ]
And o’er its own shortcomings weeps with loathing.

And so the yearning strong, with which the soul will long,

Shall far out-pass the power of human telling;
F C/E Gm Dm - C - G
For none can guess its grace, till he become the place
C/E F G [ C – F (x2) ] - C
Wherein the Holy Spirit makes His dwelling.
