Tongues, that earth may hear their call;
Fire, that Love may burn in all !
2. Hear the speech before unknown!
Trembling crowds the wonder own;
What though harden'd some abide,
And the holy work deride?
Lord, to Thee Thy people bend;
Unto us Thy Spirit send:
Blessings of this sacred day

Grant us, gracious Lord, we pray!
3. Thou Who didst our fathers guide,
With their children still abide;
Grant us pardon, grant us peace,
Till our earthly wand'rings cease.
To the Father praises sing,
Praise to Christ, our risen King,
Praise, O Lord of Life, to Thee,
Blessed Spirit, ever be! Alleluia.

"Teach me to do Thy will; for Thou art my God: Thy Spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness."Ps. cxliii. 10.

74 HOLY Spirit, Lord of light,

From Thy clear celestial height
Thy pure beaming radiance give;
Come, Thou Father of the poor,
Come with treasures that endure,
Come, Thou Light of all that live !

2. Thou, of all Consolers best,
Visiting the troubled breast,

Dost refreshing peace bestow;
Thou in toil art Comfort sweet,
Cooling Breath 'mid noontide heat,
Solace in the hour of woe.

3 Light Immortal, Light Divine !
Visit Thou these hearts of Thine,
And our inmost being fill.
If Thou take Thy grace away,
Nothing pure in man will stay;
All his good is turned to ill.

4. Heal our wounds; our strength renew;
On our dryness pour Thy dew;
Wash the stain of guilt away;
Bend the stubborn heart and will;
Kindle what is cold and chill;

Guide the steps that go astray..
5. Thou, on all who evermore
Thee confess, and Thee adore,

In Thy sev'nfold Gifts descend:
Give them comfort when they die;
Give them their reward on high;

Give them joys which never end.

6. O sweet Effluence Divine,

Fill our souls and make them Thine,
Pure and spotless homes for Thee:
Glory to the Father, Son,

And Thee, Spirit, Three in One,
Unto all eternity. Alleluia.

"I will pray the Father, and He shall give you another Comforter, that He may abide with you for ever, even the Spirit of Truth."-S. John, xiy. 16, 17.

75 SPIRIT of mercy, truth, and love!

O shed Thy influence from above,
And still from age to age convey
The wonders of this sacred day.

2. In ev'ry clime, by ev'ry tongue,
Be God's amazing glory sung:

Let all the list'ning earth be taught The works our great Redeemer wrought. 3. Unfailing Comfort, Heav'nly Guide, Still o'er the Holy Church preside: Still may mankind Thy blessings prove, Spirit of mercy, truth, and love! Alleluia.

"The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance."-Gal v. 22, 23.

76 SPIRIT of truth, on this Thy day,
To Thee for help we cry,

To guide us through the dreary way
Of dark mortality.

2. Though ours no more the cloven flame,
Or tongues of various tone;
We long Thy praises to proclaim
With fervour in our own.

3. If no prophetic voice we hear,

Nor wondrous power we share,
We hope to feel Thy Comfort near,
And bless Thee in our prayer.

4. Though tongues may cease, and power decay, And knowledge empty prove,

Do Thou Thy trembling servants stay
With Faith, with Hope, with Love

5. Praise to the Father, and the Son
Who from the dead arose :
Praise to the blessed Comforter,
While age on ages flows. Alleluia.

F

Trinity Sunday.

"O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are His judgments, and His ways past finding out !"-Rom. xi. 33.

77 THRICE Holy God of wondrous might,
O Trinity of love divine,

To Thee belongs unclouded light,
And everlasting joys are Thine.

2. Beneath Thy throne dark clouds abound,
About Thee shine such dazzling rays,
That angels, as they stand around
Adoring, tremble as they gaze.

3. Thy new-born people, gracious Lord,
Confess Thee in Thine own great Name;
By hope they taste the rich reward,
Which faith already dares to claim.

4. Father, may we Thy law fulfil,

Blest Son, may we Thy precepts learn,
And Thou, Blest Spirit, guide our will,
Our feet unto Thy counsels turn.
5. Yea, Father, may Thy will be done,
And may we thus Thy name adore,
Together with Thy blessed Son,

And Holy Ghost, for evermore! Amen.

"And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, Holy, Holy, is the Lord of Hosts; the whole earth is full of His glory." Isa. vi. 3.

78 FATHER of all, to Thee we raise

The tribute of our grateful praise,

Who for our twofold life hast giv'n

Bread from the earth, and Bread from heav'n.

2. Thou too, O Jesu, be ador'd,
The only Son, th' Almighty Lord;
Who, our Salvation to become,
Didst not abhor the Virgin's womb.
3. Who, on the Cross a Victim made,
The ransom of the world hast paid;
Through Whom alone on guilty men
The hope of life has dawn'd again.
4. And Thou, by Whose Almighty power
The Virgin at the destin'd hour
Brought forth Incarnate Deity,
Eternal Spirit, praise to Thee!

5. Three Persons, but One God, Whose grace
Both forms and saves our human race,
With joyful hearts and lips to Thee
We hymn this mighty Mystery. Amen.

"There are Three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost; and these Three are One.' -1 S. John, v. 7.

79 FATHER of Light! O shine on us With Thy bright beams of love;

Make us to walk in Thy pure Light,

And fix our hearts above.

2. O Lord! Who, lifted

up,

didst hang

To draw all men to Thee;

Draw us with Thy strong bands of love,

From earth's vile chains set free.

3. O Holy Well of Life! refresh Our weary souls in Thee ;

That, ever living, we may bless

The ALMIGHTY ONE in THREE. Amen.
