MySongbooksThe Australian Hymn Book
The Australian Hymn Book was published in 1977, and was the culmination of almost ten years' work by an ecumenical committee, chaired by A. Harold Wood, intent on producing a new, contemporary and inclusive hymn book that could be used in worship by the varied Christian congregations across Australia.

[1]
Spirit of God, that moved of old
upon the waters' darkened face,
come, when our faithless hearts are cold,
and stir them with an inward grace.
[2]
Thou that art power and peace combined,
all highest strength, all purest love,
the rushing of the mighty wind,
the brooding of the gentle dove,
[3]
come give us still thy powerful aid,
and urge us on, and keep us thine;
nor leave the hearts that once were made
fit temples for thy grace divine;
[4]
nor let us quench thy sevenfold light;
but still with softest breathings stir
our wayward souls, and lead us right,
O Holy Ghost, the comforter.
