Spirit of God

Espírito de Deus, descenda sobre meu coração; Desmame-o do mundo; e de todas suas pulsações; Incline-se à minha fraqueza, forte como és, e me faz amar-te como eu devo amar 1\. Spirit of God, descend upon my heart; wean it from earth; through all its pulses move; stoop to my weakness, mighty as thou art, and make me love thee as I ought to love. 2\. Has thou not bid me love thee, God and King? All, all thine own, soul, heart and strength and mind. I see thy cross; there teach my heart to cling. O let me seek thee, and O let me find. 3\. Teach me to feel that thou art always nigh; teach me the struggles of the soul to bear. To check the rising doubt, the rebel sigh, teach me the patience of unanswered prayer.
