Words
⤢ Full screenHoly Spirit, truth divine,Dawn upon this soul of mine;Word of God, and inward light,Wake my spirit, clear my sight.
Holy Spirit, love divine,Glow within this heart of mine,Kindle every high desire,Perish self in thy pure fire.
Holy Spirit, power divine!Fill and nerve this will of mine;Be my law, and I shall beFirmly bound, yet ever free.
