The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal ‎#215

215. Holy Ghost, with Light Divine

1 Holy Ghost, with light divine
Shine on this heart of mine:
Chase the shade of night away,
Turn my darkness into day.

2 Holy Ghost, with power divine,
Cleanse this guilty heart of mine:
long has sin, without control,
Held dominion o'er my soul.

3 Holy Ghost, with joy divine,
Cheer this saddened heart of mine:
Bid my many woes depart,
Heal my wounded, bleeding heart.

4 Holy Spirit, all divine,
Dwell within this heart of mine;
Cast down every idol throne,
Reign supreme, and reign alone.

AMEN.
