Spirit Divine, Attend Our Prayers

This is an unusual, but beautiful piece for solo soprano with flute accompaniment.

Music: Kevin Weed. Words: Andrew Reed, 1829

Spirit divine, attend our prayers,
And make our heart Thy home;
Descend with all Thy gracious power;
Come, Holy Spirit, come.

Come as the fire and purge our hearts
Like sacrificial flame,
Till our whole souls an offering be
In love’s redeeming name.

Come as the dove, and spread Thy wings,
The wings of peaceful love;
And let Thy Church on earth become
Blest as Thy Church above.

Come as the wind, O Breath of God!
O Pentecostal grace!
Come, make Thy great salvation known,
Wide as the human race.

Spirit divine, attend our prayer;
Make a lost world Thy home;
Descend with all thy gracious powers,
O come, great Spirit, come.

Spirit divine, attend our prayers,
And make our heart Thy home;
Descend with all Thy gracious power;
Come, Holy Spirit, come.
