The praying spirit breathe,
1
The praying spirit breathe,The watching power impart,From all entanglements beneathCall off my peaceful heart.
2
My feeble mind sustain,By worldly thoughts oppressed;Appear, and bid me turn againTo my eternal rest.
3
Swift to my rescue come,Thine own this moment seize;Gather my wandering spirit home,And keep in perfect peace:
4
Suffer no more to roveO'er all the earth abroad,Arrest the prisoner of thy love,And shut me up in God.
