  1. 1Holy Ghost, with light divine,
  2. Shine upon this heart of mine,
  3. Chase the shades of night away,
  4. Turn the darkness into day.
  5. 2Let me see my Saviour’s face,
  6. Let me all His beauties trace;
  7. Show those glorious truths to me
  8. Which are only known to Thee.
  9. 3Holy Ghost, with power divine,
  10. Cleanse this guilty heart of mine;
  11. In Thy mercy pity me,
  12. From sin's bondage set me free.
  13. 4Holy Ghost, with joy divine,
  14. Cheer this saddened heart of mine;
  15. Yield a sacred, settled peace,
  16. Let it grow and still increase.
  17. 5Holy Spirit, all divine,
  18. Dwell within this heart of mine;
  19. Cast down every idol throne,
  20. Reign supreme, and reign alone.
  21. 6See, to Thee I yield my heart;
  22. Shed Thy life through every part,
  23. A pure temple I would be,
  24. Wholly dedicate to Thee.
  25. 7Amen.
