Composer: | W. D. Maclagan |
1 Holy Spirit, Truth divine,
Dawn upon this soul of mine,
Breath of God and inward light,
Wake my spirit, clear my sight.
2 Holy Spirit, Love divine,
Glow within this heart of mine;
Kindle every high desire;
Perish self in Thy pure fire!
3 Holy Spirit, Power divine,
Fill and nerve this will of mine;
By Thee may I strongly live,
Bravely bear, and nobly strive.
4 Holy Spirit, Right divine,
King within my conscience reign;
Be my law, and I shall be
Firmly bound, for ever free.
5 Holy Spirit, Peace divine,
Still this restless heart of mine;
Speak to calm this tossing sea,
Stayed in Thy tranquility.
6 Holy Spirit, Joy divine,
Gladden Thou this heart of mine;
In the desert ways I sing.
"Spring, O Well, for ever spring."
