511 - The Holy Spirit

1. Holy Spirit, ever living as the Church's very life;

Holy Spirit, ever striving through her in a ceaseless strife;

Holy Spirit, ever forming in the Church the mind of Christ;

thee we praise with endless worship for thy fruits and gifts unpriced.

2. Holy Spirit, ever working through the Church's ministry;

quickening, strengthening and absolving, setting captive sinners free;

Holy Spirit, ever binding age to age, and soul to soul,

in a fellowship unending thee we worship and extol.
