Words

  1. 1Holy Ghost, with light divine Shine upon this heart of mine; Chase the shades of night away, Turn the darkness into day.
  2. 2Let me see my Savior's face, Let me all His beauties trace; Show those glorious truths to me Which are only known to Thee.
  3. 3Holy Ghost, with pow'r divine Cleanse this guilty heart of mine; In Thy mercy pity me, From sin's bondage set me free.
  4. 4Holy Ghost, with joy divine Cheer this saddened heart of mine; Yield a sacred, settled peace, Let it grow and still increase.
  5. 5Holy Spirit, all divine, Dwell within this heart of mine; Cast down every idolthrone, Reign supreme, and reign alone.
  6. 6See, to Thee I yield my heart, Shed Thy life through every part; A pure temple I would be, Wholly dedicate to Thee.
  7. 7Holy Spirit, Truth divine, Dawn upon this soul of mine; Word of God and inward light Wake my spirit, clear my sight.
  8. 8Holy Spirit, Love divine, Glow within this heart of mine; Kindle every high desire; Perish self in Thy pure fire.
  9. 9Holy Spirit, Power divine Fill and nerve this will of mine; Grant that I may strongly live, Bravely bear, and nobly strive.
  10. 10Holy Spirit, Right divine, King within my conscience reign; Be my Lord, and I shall be Firmly bound, forever free.
  11. 11Holy Spirit, Peace divine, Still this restless heart of mine; Speak to calm this tossing sea, Stayed in Thy tranquility.
  12. 12Holy Spirit, Joy divine, Gladden Thou this heart of mine; In the desert ways I sing, "Spring, O Well, forever spring."
  13. 13Now incline me to repent, Let me now my sins lament, Now my foul revolt deplore, Weep, believe, and sin no more.
