The Comforter Has Come

1"I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you forever." — John 14:16.
O spread the tidings 'round, wherever man is found,
Wherever human hearts and human woes abound;
Let every Christian tongue proclaim the joyful sound:
The Comforter has come!

RefrainThe Comforter has come! The Comforter has come!
The Holy Ghost from Heav’n, the Father’s promise giv’n;
O spread the tidings ’round, wherever man is found—
The Comforter has come!

2The long, long night is past, the morning breaks at last;
And hushed the dreadful wail of captives held so fast!
He lives who once was dead, the open fountain flows
From Calv’ry’s sacred head; oh, bless His name!

3The Comforter has come, the Comforter has come!
The Holy Ghost from Heav’n, the Father’s promise giv’n;
O spread the tidings ’round, wherever man is found—
The Comforter has come!
