Hymns of the Lutheran Church

183 Holy Spirit, Light Divine

1 Holy Spirit, Light divine, Shine upon this heart of mine; Chase the gloom of night away; Turn the darkness into day. 2 Holy Spirit, Love divine, Cleanse this guilty heart of mine; In your mercy pity me, From sin's bondage set me free. 3 Holy Spirit, Joy divine, Cheer this saddened heart of mine; Fill me with your heav'nly peace; Let it grow and still increase. 4 Holy Spirit, Pow'r divine, Dwell within this heart of mine; Cast down ev'ry idol throne; Reign supreme and reign alone. 5 See, to you I give my heart; Cleanse my life in ev'ry part. Your own temple I would be Now and for eternity.
