 1  Lord, the Spirit, Truth divine,

    Dawn upon this heart of mine;

    Word of God, and inward light,

    Wake my spirit, clear my sight.

 

 2  Lord, the Spirit, Love divine,

    Glow within this heart of mine,

    Kindle every high desire,

    Perish self in Thy pure fire.

 

 3  Lord, the Spirit, Power divine,

    Fill and nerve this will of mine;

    By Thee may I strongly live,

    Bravely bear, and nobly strive.

 

 4  Lord, the Spirit, Peace divine,

    Still this restless heart of mine,

    Speak to calm this tossing sea,

    Stayed in Thy tranquility.

 

 5  Lord, the Spirit, Joy divine,

    Gladden Thou this heart of mine;

    In the desert ways I'll sing:

    Spring, O Well, forever spring!
