Thou, O Spirit Thou, O Spirit Art my guide, my light divine. 3 I have pledged, and would not falter, Truth, obedience, love to Thee; I have vowed upon Thine altar, Ever Thine alone to be, And forever And forever Sin and all its lusts to flee. 4 Gracious God, all Thou hast spoken In this covenant shall take place; But if I, alas, have broken These my vows, hide not Thy face; And from falling And from falling O restore me by Thy grace! 5 Lord, to Thee I now surrender All I have, and all I am; Make my heart more true and tender, Glorify in me thy Name. Let obedience Let obedience To Thy will be all my aim. 6 Help me in this high endeavor, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost! Bind my heart to Thee forever, Till I join the heavenly host' Living, dying Living, dying Let me make in Thee my boast. Used With Tune: [Father, Son, and Holy Spirit]
