2 We pray Thee, Jesus, with Thy gifts 4 O Holy Ghost, Anointer, come,
Thy chosen servants bless, Pastor and people fill,
With doctrine incorrupt and pure Till all the happy tribes of earth
And righteousness. Shall do His will.
3 We pray Thee, Jesus, that their course 5 Then to the Father, and the Son,
May still be clothed with power, And Holy Ghost her praise
With miracles of love and strength, One living, undivided Church
Meet for the hour. Shall ever raise.

2 Arise, and be baptized,
And wash thy sins away; Thy league with God be solemnized, Thy faith avouched to-day.
3 No more thine own, but Christ's, —
With all the saints of old, Apostles, seers, evangelists,
And martyr throngs enrolled, — |
4 In God's whole armor strong,
Front hell's embattled powers: The warfare may be sharp and long, I The victory must be ours.
5 O bright the conqueror's crown,
The song of triumph sweet, When faith casts every trophy down I At our great Captain's feet.
Bishop Edward H. Bickersteth, 187A |
