HAIL, Holy Ghost, Jehovah, Third In order of the Three; Sprung from the Father...

John Wesley (1703-1791)

6 Verses Holy Spirit Invocation Resurrection Power

Verse 1

HAIL, Holy Ghost, Jehovah, Third In order of the Three; Sprung from the Father and the Word From all eternity!

Verse 2

Thy Godhead brooding o'er the abyss Of formless waters lay; Spoke into order all that is, And darkness into day.

Verse 3

In deepest hell, or heaven's height, Thy presence who can fly? Known is the Father to thy sight, The abyss of Deity.

Verse 4

Thy power through Jesu's life displayed, Quite from the virgin's womb, Dying, his soul an offering made, And raised him from the tomb.

Verse 5

God's image, which our sins destroy, Thy grace restores below; And truth, and holiness, and joy, From thee their fountain flow.

Verse 6

Hail, Holy Ghost, Jehovah, Third In order of the Three; Spring from the Father and the Word From all eternity!
