Intro: C – F (x2) 

C             F      C     Am             F       G 
Come down, O love divine, seek Thou this soul of mine, 
     Dm             F              G - C 
And visit it with Thine own ardor glowing. 
F                  C/E   Gm       Dm  - C - G 
O Comforter, draw near, within my heart appear, 
    C/E             F             G -  C – F (x2)  
And kindle it, Thy holy flame bestowing. 

C       F       C      Am          F        G 
O let it freely burn, til earthly passions turn 
    Dm            F               G - C 
To dust and ashes in its heat consuming; 
F                     C/E    Gm      Dm - C - G 
And let Thy glorious light shine ever on my sight, 
C/E                        F              G  C – F (x2)  
And clothe me round, the while my path illuming. 

C          F  C   Am           F       G 
Let holy charity mine outward vesture be, 
      Dm         F                G - C 
And lowliness become mine inner clothing; 
F                  C/E     Gm             Dm - C - G 
True lowliness of heart, which takes the humbler part, 
    C/E                F                   G  C – F (x2)  
And o’er its own shortcomings weeps with loathing. 

C           F          C     Am             F         G 
And so the yearning strong, with which the soul will long, 
       Dm               F              G – C 
Shall far out-pass the power of human telling; 
F                       C/E    Gm        Dm - C - G 
For none can guess its grace, till he become the place 
    C/E            F               G    C – F (x2)    -  C 
Wherein the Holy Spirit makes His dwelling.
