Refrain: Welcome, welcome, welcome, Holy Ghost, we welcome thee; Come in power and fill the temple, Holy Ghost, we welcome thee. 2 Here like empty earthen vessels Lying at the Master’s feet, Small but clean thro’ Jesus’ merit, Wait till thou thy work complete. [Refrain] 3 Come like dew from heaven falling, Come like spring’s refreshing shower; Holy Ghost, for thee we’re calling, Come in all thy quickening power. [Refrain] 4 Hearts are open to receive thee, Tho’ we’ve griev’d thee o’er and o’er, Holy Ghost, we greatly need thee, Come, abide forevermore. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Holy Ghost, we bid thee welcome]
