Light of life, seraphic fire!

Love divine, Thyself impart:

Every fainting soul inspire;

Enter every drooping heart:

Every mournful spirit cheer,

Scatter all our doubt and gloom;

Father, in Thy grace appear,

To Thy human temples come!

Come in this accepted hour,

Bring Thy heavenly kingdom in;

Fill us with Thy glorious power,

Rooting out the seeds of sin:

Nothing more can we require,

We can rest in nothing less:

Be Thou all our heart’s desire,

All our joy and all our peace.
