L.M.
Come, Holy Spirit, Dove Divine,
On these baptismal waters shine;
O teach our hearts, in highest strain,
To praise the Lamb for sinners slain.
We love thy name, we love thy laws,
We joyfully embrace thy cause;
We love thy cross, the shame, the pain;
O Lamb of God, for sinners slain.
We're plunged beneath the mystic flood;
Oh, plunge us in thy cleansing blood;
We die to sin, and seek a grave,
With thee beneath the yielding wave.
And as we rise with thee to live,
O let the Holy Spirit give
The sealing unction from above,
The breath of life, the fire of love.
