The Voice of Praise ‎#180

180. Holy Spirit

1 Holy Ghost! with light divine,
Shine upon this heart of mine;
Chase the shades of night away,
Turn my darkness into day.

2 Holy Ghost! with pow'r divine,
Cleanse this guilty heart of mine;
Long hath 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.

3 Holy Spirit! all divine,
Dwell within this heart of mine;
Cast down ev'ry idol throne,
Reign supreme--and reign alone.
