Hymn for the Kingswood Colliers O Spirit of love, Of health, and of power, Thy working we prove, Thy grace we adore; Whose inward revealing Applies our Lord's blood, Attesting, and sealing Us children of God. Hymn for the Kingswood Colliers. Glory to God, whose sovereign grace Hath animated senseless stones, Call'd us to stand before his face, And rais'd us into Abraham's sons. The people that in darkness lay, In sin and error's deadly shade, Have seen a glorious gospel day, In Jesu's lovely face display'd. Thou only, Lord, the work hast done, And bare'd thine arm in all our sight, Hast made the reprobates thy own, And claim'd the outcasts as thy right. Thy single arm, Almighty Lord, To us the great salvation brought, Thy word, thy all-creating word, That spake at first the world from nought.
