Our Great Redeemer's Praise ‎#303

303. Spirit Holy

1 Spirit holy in me dwelling,
ever work as Thou shalt choose;
all my ransomed pow’rs and talents
for Thy purpose Thou shalt use.

Refrain:
Spirit holy, Spirit holy,
all my being now possess;
Lead me, rule me, work within me,
through my life Thy will express.

2 O how sweet is Thy abiding!
O how tender is the love
Thou dost shed abroad within me
from the Father-heart above! [Refrain]

3 Thou hast cleansed me for Thy temple,
garnished with Thy graces rare;
all my soul Thou art enriching
by Thy fullness dwelling there. [Refrain]

4 In me now reveal Thy glory,
let Thy might be ever shown;
keep me from the world’s defilement,
sacred for Thyself alone. [Refrain]
