Author: Samuel Longfellow, 1819-1892 Hymnal: Hymns for Youth #113 (1966) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Hymnal Title: Hymns for Youth Lyrics: 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, forever free.
5. Holy Spirit, peace divine,
Still this restless heart of mine;
Speak to calm this tossing sea,
Stayed in thy tranquillity.
6. Holy Spirit, joy divine,
Gladden thou this heart of mine;
In the desert ways I sing,
"Spring, O Well, forever spring!" Languages: English Tune Title: LEW TRENCHARD
Holy Spirit, Truth Divine
