Lutheran Hymnal: 119 - Come Down, O Love Divine
1
Come down, O Love divine,
Seek Thou this soul of mine,
And visit it with Thine own ardour glowing;
C Comforter, draw near,
Within my heart appear,
And kindle it, Thy holy flame bestowing.
2
O let it freely burn,
Till earthly passions turn
To dust and ashes in its heat consuming;
And let Thy glorious light
Shine ever on my sight,
And clothe me round, the while my path illuming.
3
Let holy charity
Mine outward vesture be,
And lowliness become mine inner clothing:
True lowliness of heart,
Which takes the humbler part,
And o’er its own shortcomings weeps with loathing.
4
And so the yearning strong,
With which the soul will long,
Shall far outpass the power of human telling;
For none can guess its grace,
Till he become the place
Wherein the Holy Spirit makes His dwelling.
