The bruised and broken hearts to win;
In every place to bring them in,
  Where Thou Thyself wilt come.

Gird each one with the Spirit’s sword,
The sword of Thine own deathless word;
And make them conquerors, conquering Lord,
  Where Thou Thyself wilt come.

The sword of Thine own deathless word;
And make them conquerors, conquering Lord,
  Where Thou Thyself wilt come.

Raise up, O Lord the Holy Ghost,
From this broad land a mighty host,
Their war-cry, We will seek the lost,
  Where Thou, O Christ, wilt come!
Raise up, O Lord the Holy Ghost,
From this broad land a mighty host,
Their war-cry, We will seek the lost,
  Where Thou, O Christ, wilt come!
