Hymns for Whit-Sunday, 21

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Hymns of Petition and Thanksgiving for the Promise of the Father (1746) · Osborn ed., vol. 4 (1869)

Religion

Again, Thou Spirit of Burning come,
Thy last great office to fulfil,
To show the hellish tyrant's doom,
The hellish tyrant's doom to sea/,
To drive him from Thy sacred shrine,
And fill our souls with life Divine.
