181. Spirit of Truth, indwelling Light

1 Spirit of Truth, indwelling Light,
For ever in our souls abide;
Open our eyes to see aright,
Into all truth our footsteps guide.

2 Spirit of Comfort and of Love,
Come to our hearts with soothing spell!
Our troubled thought, our fears remove,
With us for ever deign to dwell.

3 Sent from the Father by the Son,
Come forth, our Guide to Them to be,
For Thou, we know, with Them art Once,
And we have Them in having Thee.

4 A peace the world has not to give
Is theirs who do the Saviour's will;
Help Thou us more to Him to live,
And with His peace our spirits fill.
