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
Tender Spirit dwell with me
I myself would tender be
Shut my heart up like a flower
In temptation’s darksome hour
Open it when shines the sun
And his love by fragrance own
4
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
5
Holy Spirit dwell with me
I myself would holy be
Separate from sin I would
Choose and cherish all things good
And whatever I can be
Give to Him who gave me Thee
