GRACIOUS SPIRIT
English Lyrics
Gracious Spirit, dwell with me, I myself would gracious be: And, with words that help and heal, Would Thy life in mine reveal; And with actions bold and meek, Would for Christ my Saviour speak. Holy Spirit, dwell with me, I myself would Holy be; Separate from sin, I would Choose and cherish all things good: And whatever I can be Give to Him who gave me Thee. Mighty Spirit, dwell with me, I myself would mighty be; Mighty so as to prevail, Where unaided man must fail: Ever, by a mighty hope, Pressing on and bearing up. Tender Spirit, dwell with me, I myself would tender be. Shut my heart up like a flower, At temptation‟s darksome hour; Open it, when shines the sun, And His love by fragrance own
