Words
⤢ Full screenBlest Comforter divine,Let rays of heavenly loveAmid our gloom and darkness shine,And point our souls above.
Turn us with gentle voiceFrom every sinful way,And bid the mourning saint rejoiceThough earthly joys decay.
By thine inspiring breathMake every cloud of care,And e'en the gloomy vale of death,A smile of glory wear.
O, fill thou every heartWith love to all our race;Great Comforter, to us impartThese blessings of thy grace.
