Acts 13:4: So they, being sent fort Ji by the Holy Ghost, &c

i Holy Ghost, beneath whose power
Our praying souls we bow,
Open wide the gospel-door
Send forth apostles now:
Men by inspiration moved
The tidings of great joy to tell,
Men whose call is fully proved
By signs infallible.
Messengers of Christ the Lord,
The Lamb for sinners slain,
Boldly let them preach the word
Of God, and not of man:
If the word is surely Thine
Which testifies our sins forgiven,
To demonstrate it Divine,
Thyself come down from heaven.
