1. 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 Savior speak.
2. Truthful Spirit, dwell with me:
I myself would truthful be;
And with wisdom kind and clear,
Let Thy life in mine appear;
And with actions brotherly,
Speak my Lord’s sincerity.
3. 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.
4. Holy Spirit, dwell with me:
I myself would holy be;
Sep’rate then from sin I would
Choose and cherish all things good,
And whatever I can be,
Give to Him who gave me Thee.
