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 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!
