A classic Sacred Harp tune for Pentecost:
Listen to a folk version by Liz Jayne
Lyrics:
Come, Holy Spirit, Come
With energy divine,
And on this poor, benighted soul
With beams of mercy shine
Melt, melt this frozen heart;
This stubborn will subdue;
Each evil passion overcome,
And form me all anew
Mine will the profit be,
But Thine shall be the praise;
And unto Thee will I devote
the remnant of my days
Praise Father, Spirit, Son
The Mighty Three in One
Creator, Saviour, Fiery Breeze
Sustainer be our peace
Words: Benjamin Beddome, 1900

Music: ABBEVILLE, by E.J. King, 1844
