Author: Samuel Longfellow (1819-1892) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #250b (2013) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Holy Spirit, truth divine,
dawn upon this soul of mine;
voice of God, and inward light,
wake my spirit, clear my sight.
2 Holy Spirit, love divine,
glow within this heart of mine;
kindle every high desire;
perish self in thy pure fire.
3 Holy Spirit, power divine,
fill and nerve this will of mine;
by thee may I strongly live,
bravely bear and nobly strive.
4 Holy Spirit, law divine,
reign within this soul of mine;
be my law, and I shall be
firmly bound, for ever free.
5 Holy Spirit, peace divine,
still this restless heart of mine;
speak to calm this tossing sea,
stayed in thy tranquillity.
6 Holy Spirit, joy divine,
gladden thou this heart of mine;
in the desert ways I sing,
spring, O well, for ever spring! Topics: Church Year Pentecost; Discipleship; Holy Spirit inspiration of; Holy Spirit Invocation of; Pentecost and the Work of the Holy Spirit; Renewal; Self-offering Scripture: John 14:17-18 Languages: English Tune Title: VIENNA
