\Y hen darkness dwelt
less space,
God's spirit moved the watcis'
face
And through the deep of natur's
night
God's voice was heard:
there be light!"
When earth did yearn for
Love
God's spirit moved in realn ;
abovo,
And from the gilded throne oa
high
The Holy Ghost ^was quick to
fly;
And by a Virgin on the earth
A hold Ch Id was given birth.
When Christ on earth His wn !<
had done,
Life s battle sought, the vict'^y
Mon;
And when aloft He chose to son,
To dwell above forevertnore,
His Spirit, came, the priceless gift,
Our sin-sick hearts to upward
lift.
Thou Grace of Calvary abide,
Our puny >ives and souls to
guide!
That with our poor and fee' le
Light
Which comes answ with Easti r
morn,
And whispers soft. "My Lo e
is bom!"
