Blest Comforter divine
1
Blest Comforter divine,
Let rays of heavenly love
Amid our gloom and darkness shine,
And point our souls above.
2
Turn us with gentle voice
From every sinful way,
And bid the mourning saint rejoice
Though earthly joys decay.
3
By thine inspiring breath
Make every cloud of care,
And e'en the gloomy vale of death,
A smile of glory wear.
4
O, fill thou every heart
With love to all our race;
Great Comforter, to us impart
These blessings of thy grace.
