Author: C. H. M. Hymnal: The Old Story in Song #83 (1906) First Line: Ye are the temples, Jesus hath spoken Refrain First Line: Have ye received, since ye believed Lyrics: 1 Ye are the temples, Jesus hath spoken,
Temples of God’s holy Spirit divine;
Have ye receiv’d him, bidden him enter,
Make his abode in that poor heart of thine?
Refrain:
Have ye receiv’d, since ye believ’d,
The blessed Holy Ghost?
He who has promis’d, gift of the Father,
Have ye receiv’d the Holy Ghost?
2 He who has pardon’d surely will cleanse thee,
All of the dross of thy nature refine;
Cleans’d from all sin, his power will enter,
Fill you and thrill you with power divine. [Refrain]
3 Showers of mercy, fulness of blessing,
Ever the Spirit’s indwelling attend;
’Tis this enduement, power of service,
Fruits for your labor he surely will send. [Refrain]
4 Weary of wand’ring, come into Canaan,
Feast on the fullness and fat of the land;
Feed on the manna, dwell in the sunshine,
Led by his Spirit and kept by his hand. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Ye are the temples, Jesus hath spoken]
Have Ye Received the Holy Ghost?
