Gracious Spirit! Love Divine!

John Stocker (1777) • English

Primary Scripture: Nehemiah 9:17

Verse 1

Gracious Spirit, dove divine, let thy light within me shine; all my guilty fears remove, fill me full of heav'n and love.

Verse 2

Speak thy pard'ning grace to me, set the burdened sinner free; lead me to the Lamb of God, wash me in his precious blood.

Verse 3

Life and peace to me impart; seal salvation on my heart; breathe thyself into my breast, earnest of immortal rest.

Verse 4

Let me never from thee stray, keep me in the narrow way; fill my soul with joy divine, keep me, Lord, forever thine.
