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.

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.

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.

Holy Spirit, dwell with me;
I myself would holy be;
Separated from sin, I would
Choose and cherish all things good;
And whatever I can be,
Give to him who gave me thee.
