The Sacred Harp ‎#33b

33b. Come, Holy Spirit, come

1 Come, Holy Spirit come,
With energy divine,
And on this poor, benighted soul,
With beams of mercy shine.

2 Melt, melt this frozen heart;
This stubborn will subdue;
Each evil passion overcome,
And form me all anew.

3 Mine will the profit be,
But Thine shall be the praise;
And unto Thee will I devote
The remnant of my days.
