Holy Spirit, Hear Us Help us while we sing

Melody -

W. H. Parker, 1845-1929

1. Holy Spirit, hear us,
Help us while we sing;
Breathe into the music
Of the praise we bring.

2. Holy Spirit, prompt us
When we kneel to pray;
Nearer come, and teach us
What we ought to say.
  3. Holy Spirit, shine thou
On the book we read;
Gild its holy pages
With the light we need.

4. Holy Spirit, give us
Each a lowly mind;
Make us more like Jesus,
Gentle, pure, and kind.

5. Holy Spirit, help us
Daily, by thy might,
What is wrong to conquer,
And to choose the right.
