3 Thou only canst our wills control, Our wild unruly passions bind ; Tame the old Adam in our soul, And make us of one heart and mind. 4 Speak but the reconciling word, The winds shall cease, the waves subside We all shall praise our common Lord, Our Jesus, and him crucified. 5 Giver of peace and unity, Send down thy mild, pacific Dove : We all shall then in one agree, And breathe the spirit of thy love. 6 We all shall think and speak the same Delightful lesson of thy grace ; One undivided Christ proclaim, And jointly glory in thy praise. 7 O let us take a softer mould, Blended and gather'd into thee ; Under one Shepherd make one fold, Where all is love and harmony! For the Society Praying, 47o 8 Regard thine own eternal prayer, And send a peaceful answer down ; To us thy Father's name declare ; Unite and perfect us in one ! 9 So shall the world believe and know, That God hath sent thee from above, When thou art seen in us below, And every soul displays thy love. HYMN 506. 7's&6's. John xiv. 16, ±7- 1 T^ATHER of our dying Lord, *- Remember us for good ; O fulfil his faithful word, And hear his speaking blood ! Give us that for which he prays : Father, glorify thy Son ! Show his truth, and power, and grace, And send the Promise down. 2 True and faithful Witness, thou, O Christ, thy Spirit give ! Hast thou not received him now, That we might now receive ? Art thou not our living Head ? Life to all thy limbs impart : Shed thy love, thy Spirit shed In every waiting heart. 3 Holy Ghost, the Comforter, The gift of Jesus, come ; Glows our heart to find thee near, And swells to make thee room : Present with us thee we feel, Come, O come, and in us be ! With us, in us, live and dwell, To all eternity- 4/4 For the Society Praying.
