"Holy Ghost, with Light Divine" by Andrew Reed, 1788-1862 Text From: THE HANDBOOK TO THE LUTHERAN HYMNAL (St. Louis: Concordia Publishing House, 1942) p.174-175 1. Holy Ghost, with light divine Shine upon this heart of mine; Chase the shades of night away, Turn the darkness into day. 2. Let me see my Savior's face, Let me all His beauties trace; Show those glorious truths to me Which are only known to Thee. 3. Holy Ghost, with power divine Cleanse this guilty heart of mine; In Thy mercy pity me, From sin's bondage set me free. 4. Holy Ghost, with joy divine Cheer this saddened heart of mine; Yield a sacred, settled peace, Let it grow and still increase. 5. Holy Spirit, all divine, Dwell within this heart of mine; Cast down every idol-throne, Reign supreme, and reign alone. 6. See, to Thee I yield my heart, Shed Thy life through every part; A pure temple I would be, Wholly dedicate to Thee. _______________________________________________________ Notes from _The Lutheran Hymnal_ Hymn #234 Text: 1 Thess. 5:23 Author: Andrew Reed, 1817 Composer: Orlando Gibbons, 1623 Tune: "Light Divine" _________________________________________________________ This text was converted to ascii format for Project Wittenberg by Cindy A.
