Representative Text

1 Fill me with Thy Spirit, Lord,
fully save my longing soul;
through the precious, cleansing blood,
purify and make me whole.

Refrain:
Come, O Spirit, seal me Thine,
come, Thy fullness now bestow.
Let Thy glory in me shine,
let Thy fire within me glow.

2 Fill me with Thy holy light,
I would have a single eye;
make me perfect in Thy sight,
’tis Thy will to sanctify. [Refrain]

3 Fill me with Thy perfect love,
naught of self would I retain;
losing all Thy love to prove,
Lord, I count a happy gain. [Refrain]

4 Fill me with Thy mighty pow’r,
Father, Son, and Spirit, come;
in my soul the unction pour,
make me ever all Thine own. [Refrain]

5 Fill me with Thy presence now,
Lord, Thyself in me reveal;
at Thy feet I humbly bow
to receive the holy seal. [Refrain]
