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.
