By A Collection of Hymns

      L.M.
      1 ON all the earth thy Spirit shower;
      The earth in righteousness renew;
      Thy kingdom come, and hell's o'erpower,
      And to thy sceptre all subdue.

      2 Like mighty winds, or torrents fierce,
      Let it opposers all o'errun;
      And every law of sin reverse,
      That faith and love may make all one.

      3 Yea, let thy Spirit in every place
      Its richer energy declare;
      While lovely tempers, fruits of grace,
      The kingdom of thy Christ prepare.

      4 Grant this, O holy God and true!
      The ancient seers thou didst inspire;
      To us perform the promise due;
      Descend, and crown us now with fire!
