#143O blessed Comforter, draw nigh

1
O blessed Comforter, draw nigh! Cheer and sustain my fainting heart; Without thy presence I would die, And every cheering ray depart.
2
Whene'er to call the Saviour mine With ardent wish my heart aspires, Can it be less than power divine That wakens these strong desires?
3
And when my cheerful hopes can say I love my God and taste his grace, Lord, is it not thy blissful ray That brings this dawn of sacred peace?
4
Let thy good Spirit in my heart Forever dwell, O God of love! And light and heavenly peace impart, Sweet earnest of the joys above.
