ICOME, Holy Ghost,-in love Shed on us from above Thine own bright ray! Divinely good thou art; Thy sacred gifts impart To gladden each sad heart: O come to-day! 2 Come, tenderest Friend, and best, Our most delightful guest, With soothing power; Rest, which the weary know, Shade, 'mid the noontide glow, Peace, when deep griefs o'erflow, Cheer us, this hour! 3 Come, Light serene, and still Our inmost bosoms fill; Dwell in each breast: We know no dawn but thine; Send forth thy beams divine, On our dark souls to shine, And make us blest! 4 Come, all the faithful bless; Let all who Christ confess, His praise employ: Give virtue's rich reward; Victorious death accord, And, with our glorious Lord, Eternal joy! 253 "EVEN ME."

WHERE shall rest be found Rest for the weary soul? 'Twere vain the ocean depths to sound, 2 The world can never give The bliss for which we sigh: 3 Beyond this vale of tears, Unmeasured by the flight of years; FORGI ORGIVE my folly, O Lord most holy; For thee I languish; pity my anguish, 2 Deeply repenting, sorely lamenting And now returning, thine absence mourning 3 Sinful, unworthy, trembling before thee, Thy love once bleeding, now interceding, 4 Through thy rich merit, by thy free Spirit, Heavenly Physician, in kind compassion A-men. 257 I WITH ITH broken heart and contrite sigh, 2 I smite upon my troubled breast, 3 Far off I stand with tearful eyes, 4 Nor alms, nor deeds that I have done, To Calvary alone I flee: O God be merciful to me! 5 And when, redeemed from sin and hell, God has been merciful to me!
