S. Longfellow

7.7.7.7.

HOLY Spirit, truth divine,

Dawn upon this soul of mine;

Word 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, peace divine,

Still this restless heart of mine,

Speak to calm this tossing sea,

Stayed in Thy tranquility.

5

Holy Spirit, joy divine,

Gladden Thou this heart of mine;

In the desert ways I’ll sing:

Spring, O Well, forever spring!
