GHS 191 Sanctification

Come, Holy Ghost, All-Quickening Fire!

4 verses

Verse 1

Come Holy Ghost, all-quickening fire! Come, and my hallowed heart inspire, Sprinkled with the atoning blood; Now to my soul Thyself reveal, Thy mighty working let me feel, And know that I am born of God.

Verse 2

Humble, and teachable, and mild, O may I, as a little child, My lowly Master's steps pursue! Be anger to my soul unknown, Hate, envy, jealousy, be gone; In love create Thou all things new.

Verse 3

Let earth no more my heart divide, With Christ may I be crucified, To Thee with my whole soul aspire; Dead to the world and all its toys, Its idle pomp, and fading joys, Be Thou alone my one desire.

Verse 4

My will be swallowed up in Thee; Light in Thy light still may I see, Beholding Thee with open face, Called the full power of faith to prove, Let all my hallowed heart be love, And all my spotless life be praise
