Text: | Holy Ghost, with Light Divine |
Author: | Andrew Reed, 1787-1862 |
Tune: | MERCY |
Arranger: | Edwin P. Parker, 1836-1925 |
Composer: | Louis M. Gottschalk, 1829-1869 |
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 power 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.
4 Holy Spirit, all divine,
Dwell within this heart of mine;
Cast down every idol-throne,
Reign supreme, and reign alone.
Amen.
