[Jesus, I wait the Spirit's power]
Talitha cumi!
—v. 41.
Jesus, I wait the Spirit's power
Which ever doth from Thee proceed,
Which did the breathless maid restore,
To raise my spirit from the dead:
I look continually to prove
The hidden life of holy love.
Which ever doth from Thee proceed,
Which did the breathless maid restore,
To raise my spirit from the dead:
I look continually to prove
The hidden life of holy love.
O bid my dead, dead soul arise,
In real holiness renew'd,
O give me back my paradise,
The image and the life of God,
My life, my resurrection be,
And manifest Thyself in me.
In real holiness renew'd,
O give me back my paradise,
The image and the life of God,
My life, my resurrection be,
And manifest Thyself in me.
By one almighty word begin
Our life of faith and holiness:
And while we daily die to sin,
Thyself, by swift or slow degrees,
Diffuse through all Thy members here,
And then our heavenly Head appear.
Our life of faith and holiness:
And while we daily die to sin,
Thyself, by swift or slow degrees,

And then our heavenly Head appear.
