HYMN 133. (L. M.) The Operations of the Holy Spirit.
I
Eternal Spirit! we confessAnd sing the wonders of thy grace;
Thy power conveys our blessings down
From God the Father and the Son.
II
Enlighten'd by thine heavenly ray,Our shades and darkness turn to day;
Thine inward teachings make us know
Our danger and our refuge too.

III
Thy power and glory works within,And breaks the chains of raging sin,
Doth our imperious lusts subdue,
And forms our wretched hearts anew.
IV
The troubled conscience knows thy voice,Thy cheering words awake our joys;
Thy words allay the stormy wind;
And calm the surges of the mind.
