A HYMN to the Holy Ghoft.

Extracted from the Ordination- Office.

C

OME, Holy Ghoft, our Souls infpire,
And lighten with celeftial Fire.
Thou the anointing Spirit art,
Who doft thy fev'nfold Gifts impart.
Thy bleffed Unction from above,
Is Comfort, Life, and Fire of Love:
Enable with perpetual Light,
The Dulness of our blinded Sight
Anoint and Chear our foiled Face
With the Abundance of thy Grace.

Keep far our Foes, give Peace at Home:
Where thou art Guide, no Ill can come,
Teach us to know the Father, Son,
And Thee, of both, to be but one;
That through the Ages all along,
This, this may be our endless Song:

Praise God, from whom all Bleffings flow, Praise him all Creatures here below; Praise him above, ye heavenly Hoft,

Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

COME Seraph lend your heav'nly Tongue,
Or Harps of golden String,

That we may raife a lofty Song

To Chrift th' Eternal King.

Who can have greater Cause to Praise
Their Saviour and their God!
Than they, whom Jefus hath redeem'd,
And wafh'd in his dear Blood.

In Pfalms and Hymas fpeak forth his Praise,
Let ranfom'd Sinners fing,

In loudest Songs of Triumph, cry
Hofannas to our King.

that each here had Angels Tongues,
Our Jefus to adore;

That we like them might always praise
His Goodness, Love, and Power.

Then

Then we will fing, and never cease
His Glory to proclaim;

Who for our Souls fuch Wonders wrought,
All Praise attend his Name.

To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
Eternal Praise be given,

By all that dwell upon the Earth,
And all the Hoft of Heaven.

When Thou in Majefty draw'st near,
Make this, O God, a House of Prayer,

Be fill'd with reverential Fear
Bow down with Wonder, and adore
The Love of Chrift for evermore.

Let Sinners to thy Throne draw near;
Obtain remiffion of their Sins,
The Peace and Joy the Gofpel brings.

Let many here be Born again,
And find Salvation through thy Name;

That wand'ring Sinners are brought Home.

Make this a Fold for thy bleft Sheep,
And let them clofe together keep,

And learn the Notes that Angels Sing.

And while we Worship here below,
Let us in Faith and Love ftill grow,
Longing to join the Heav'nly Throng,
In one triumphant endless Song.

LORD, we come before thy Throne,
In all Humility fall down,

And worship at thy Feet;

Here may we wait 'till Thou pafs by,
Unto our longing Souls draw nigh,
Who lie at Mercy's Seat.

Within thy House of Mercy, we

O let it now draw nigh;
Unveil thy Face, that we may prove
The wond'rous myft'ry of that Love,
Why God for Sinners dy'd!

Nothing, great God, have we to bring,
But fuch vile Hearts that's full of Sin,
Lord, wash them in thy Blood;
Take off the Burden from each Heart,
Thy free Salvation now impart,

That we may walk with God.

O that we could this Moment feel
The bleffed Spirit's Heav'nly Seal,
The Unction from above;.
