Hymns on the Trinity, 65
From Hymns on the Trinity (1767) · Osborn ed., vol. 7 (1870)
Fulfill'd in us we daily own
The ancient gospel prophecy,
Taught by the Holy Ghost alone,
We all are taught by God most high;
Tis He instructs us through His grace,
Whate'er the instruments employ'd,
God only claims His people's praise:
Our Teacher is indwelling God.
Come Holy Ghost, Thyself reveal,
Spirit of grace and wisdom come,
Thy own Divine instructions seal,
And make our hearts Thy constant home:
When Thou art in Thy saints below,
We serve Thee as the church above,
And all things have, and all things know,
Divinely taught our God to love.
