Gracious Spirit, Dove Divine

Gracious Spir­it

Dove di­vine

Let Thy light with­in me shine;

All my guil­ty fears re­move

Fill me full of Heav’n and love.

Speak Thy par­don­ing grace to me

Set the bur­dened sin­ner free;

Lead me to the Lamb of God

Wash me in His pre­cious blood.

Life and peace to me im­part

Seal sal­va­tion in my heart;

Breathe Thy­self in­to my breast

Earnest of im­mor­tal rest.

Let me nev­er from Thee stray

Keep me in the nar­row way;

Fill my soul with joy di­vine

Keep me

Lord

for­ev­er Thine.

Guard me round

on ev­ery side

Save me from self right­eous pride;

Me with Je­su’s mind in­spire

Melt me with ce­les­ti­al fire.

Thou my dross and tin con­sume

Let Thy in­ward king­dom come;

All my pray­er and praise sug­gest

Dwell and reign with­in my breast.
