1. Here from the world we turn,
Jesus to seek;
Here may His loving voice
tenderly speak!
Jesus, our dearest Friend,
while at Thy feet we bend,
O let Thy smile descend!
’Tis Thee we seek.
2. Come, holy Comforter,
Presence divine,
Now in our longing hearts
graciously shine;
O for Thy mighty power!
O for a blessèd shower,
Filling this hallowed hour
with joy divine!
3. Savior, Thy work revive;
here may we see
Those who are dead in sin
quickened by Thee;
Come to our hearts tonight,
make every burden light;
Cheer Thou our waiting sight;
we long for Thee.
