Text:O come, and dwell in me
Author:Charles Wesley, 1707-1788
Tune:LANGHAM
Composer:Sir Frederic H. Cowen, 1851-

154. O come, and dwell in me

1 O come, and dwell in me,
Spirit of power within!
And bring the glorious liberty
From sorrow, fear, and sin.
The seed of sin's disease,
Spirit of health, remove,
Spirit of finished holiness,
Spirit of perfect love.

2 Hasten the joyful day,
Which shall my sins consume,
When old things shall be passed away,
And all things new become.
The original offence
Out of my soul erase;
Enter Thyself, and drive it hence,
And take up all the place.

3 I want the witness, Lord,
That all I do is right;
According to Thy will and word,
Well-pleasing in Thy sight:
I ask no higher state;
Indulge me but in this,
And soon or later then translate
To my eternal bliss.
