“Uphold me with thy free spirit.” Ps. 51. 12
J. Stocker 7s
1
Gracious Spirit, Dove divine,
Let thy light within me shine;
All my guilty fears remove,
With atoning blood and love.
2
Speak thy pardoning grace to me;
Set the burdened sinner free;
Lead me to the Lamb of God;
Wash me in his precious blood.
3
Life and peace to me impart;
Seal salvation on my heart;
Breathe thyself into my breast,
Earnest of immortal rest.
4
Guard me round on every side;
Save me from self-righteous pride;
Me with Jesus’ mind inspire;
Melt me with celestial fire.
5
Thou my dross and tin consume;
Let thy inward kingdom come;
All my prayer and praise suggest;
Dwell and reign within my breast.
