[Branch of Jesse's stem, arise]
There shall come forth a rod out of the stem, &c.
—xi. 1.
Branch of Jesse's stem, arise,
And in our nature grow,
Turn our earth to paradise,
By flourishing below:
Bless us with the Spirit of grace
Immeasurably shed on Thee,
Pour on all the faithful race
The streaming Deity.
