HYMN 205

1.  OH, spread the tidings round 

     Wherever man is found

     Wherever human hearts and human 

     woes abound

     Let every Christian tongues proclaim 

     the joyful sound 

     The Comforter has come!

Chorus:  The Comforter has come

               the comforter has come

               The Holy Ghost from heaven, the

               father’s promise given

               Oh, spread the tidings round, wherever 

               man is found

               The Comforter has come!


2.  Lo, the great King of Kings, 

     with healing in His wings 

     To, every captive sound a full 

     deliverance brings

     And through the vacant cells the songs 

     of triumph rings.

Chorus:  The Comforter has come...


3.  O boundless Love divine! how shall 

     this tongues of mine

      To wandring mortals tell the 

      matchless grace divine

      That I, a child of hell, should in 

      His image shine!

Chorus:  The Comforter has come...


4.  Sing, till the echoes fly above the 

     Vaulted sky

     And all the saints above to all blow reply 

     In strain of endless love, the song

     that ne’er will die;

Chorus:  The Comforter has come

               the comforter has come

               The Holy Ghost from heaven, the

               father’s promise given

               Oh, spread the tidings round, wherever 

               man is found

               The Comforter has come!  Amen
