May ska telth-le-melth Holy Spirit;

Osthayte telth-le-melth skhietl;

Ay-e may whee tasawlth skwi-la-wal,

Mistokh kwawm-kwum kwaw-kwus.

Yawswa talowa owa tatsel

Whee tasawlth skwi-la-wal;

Tasawlth staylim owa lam sitsaye,

E skwi ta sawlth stha-kulth-kham.

Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove,

With all thy quickening powers;

Kindle a flame of sacred love

In these cold hearts of ours.

In vain we tune our formal songs,

In vain we strive to rise;

Hosannas languish on our tongues,

And our devotion dies.

Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove,

With all thy quickening powers;

Come, shed abroad the Savior’s love,

And that shall kindle ours.
