Come as a wisdom to children,
Come as new sight to the blind,
Come, Lord, as strength to our weakness,
Take our soul, body and mind.
Come, Holy Spirit, we need You,
Come, sweet Spirit, we pray;
Come in Your strength and Your power,
Come in Your own gentle way.
Come as a rest to the weary,
Come as a balm for the sore,
Come as a dew to our dryness:
Fill us with joy evermore.
Come like a spring in the desert,
Come to the withered of soul;
O let Your sweet healing power
Touch us and make us whole.
