Hymn
The Spirit in Our Hearts
The Spirit in our hearts
Is whisp'ring, Sinners, come!
The Bride, the Church of Christ, proclaims
To all His children, Come!
Let him that heareth say
To all about him, Come!
Let him that thirsts for righteousness
To Christ the Fountain come.
Yes, whosoever will,
O let him freely come
And freely drink the stream of life;
'Tis Jesus bids him come.
Lo! Jesus, who invites,
Declares, I quickly come.
Lord, even so; we wait Thine hour;
O blest Redeemer, come!
Amen.
