Awakening Songs for the Church, Sunday School and Evangelistic Services ‎#18

18. Come and Take Possession

1 Visit us, O precious Savior,
Fix Thy dwelling in each heart;
Come this day and take possession,
Full salvation now impart.

Refrain:
Precious Savior, precious Savior,
Fix Thy dwelling in each heart;
Take possession, take possession,
Full salvation now impart.

2 Breathe upon us, loving Spirit,
Let Thy life our souls inspire;
‘Till Thy nature we inherit,
Filled with holy, pure desire. [Refrain]

3 Finish, Lord, this new creation,
Fix us for our place above;
‘Till with those who serve in glory,
We are perfect in Thy love. [Refrain]

4 Changed from glory unto glory,
Teach us here to sing Thy praise,
‘Till we cast our crowns before Thee,
And a glorious anthem raise. [Refrain]
