Lyics

BLEST Comforter Divine,

Whose rays of heav'nly love

Amid our gloom and darkness shine,

And point our souls above;



Thou, whose inspiring breath

Can make the cloud of care,

And e'en the gloomy vale of death,

A smile of glory wear;



Thou, who dost fill the heart

With love to all our race,

Blest Comforter, to us impart

The blessings of Thy grace.
