Evangelical Lutheran hymnal ‎#108

108. Gracious Spirit! Love divine!

1 Gracious Spirit! Love divine!
Let Thy light within me shine;
All my guilty fears remove;
Fill me with Thy heav'nly love.

2 Speak Thy pard'ning grace to me;
Set the burdened sinner free;
Lead me to the Lamb of God;
Wash me in His precious blood.

3 Life and peace to me impart;
Seal salvation in my heart;
Dwell Thyself into my breast,
Earnest of immortal rest.

4 Let me never from Thee stray;
Keep me in the narrow way;
Fill my soul with joy divine;
Keep me, Lord, forever Thine.
