He sends his Spirit down,
To show the wonders of his love,
And make his Gospel known.
He sends his Spirit down,
To show the wonders of his love,
And make his Gospel known.
7 O may that Spirit teach,
And make my heart receive
Those truths which all thy servants preach,
And all thy saints believe!
8 Then shall I praise the Lord
In a more chearful strain,
That I was taught to read his Word,
And have not learnt in vain.
Song 9.
The All-Seeing God.
1 Almighty God, thy piercing eye
Strikes through the shades of night,
And our most secret actions lie
All open to thy sight.
2 There's not a sin that we commit,
Nor wicked word we say,
But in thy dreadful book `tis writ
Against the judgment-day.
3 And must the crimes that I have done
Be read and publish'd there,
Be all exposed before the sun,
While men and angels hear?
4 Lord, at thy feet ashamed I lie,
Upward I dare not look;
Pardon my sins before I die,
And blot them from thy book.
5 Remember all the dying pains
