5 5 5 11, 5 5 5 11. 1 AWAY with our fears, Our troubles and tears! The Spirit is come, The witness of Jesus returned to his home; The pledge of our Lord To his heaven restored Is sent from the sky, And tells us our Head is exalted on high.
2 Our Advocate there By his blood and his prayer The gift hath obtained, For us he hath prayed, and the Comforter gained; Our glorified Head His Spirit hath shed, With his people to stay, And never again will he take him away.
3 Our heavenly guide With us shall abide, His comforts impart, And set up his kingdom of love in the heart. The heart that believes His kingdom receives, His power and his peace, His life, and his joy's everlasting increase.
4 The presence divine Doth inwardly shine, The Shechinah shall rest On all our assemblies, and glow in our breast; By day and by night The pillar of light Our steps shall attend, And convoy us safe to our prosperous end.
5 Then let us rejoice In heart and in voice, Our leader pursue, And shout as we travel the wilderness through; With the Spirit remove To Zion above, Triumphant arise, And walk with our God, till we fly to the skies.
