Text:	Holy Spirit, Dwell in Me
Author:	E. S. B.
Tune:	[Holy Spirit dwell in me]
Composer:	E. S. Black

1 Holy Spirit dwell in me,
Teach mine erring feet the way;
As I journey here below,
Guide me ev’ry day.
Show me what I ought to do,
Help me shun the wrong,
In this varied chain of life
Make the weak link strong.

2 Holy Spirit dwell in me,
Fill my soul with Thy rich grace;
Let me all the beauty see,
In my Savior’s face.
Till at last His life shall be
Mirrored in mine own,
And the likeness God can see,
To His own dear Son.

3 Holy Spirit, dwell in me,
Till life’s night has passed away;
When with rapture I shall wake
In eternal day.
I shall dwell with Christ my Lord
In our heavn’ly home,
And He will present me then,
Faultless at the throne.
