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