Spirit of God, O Make Our Heart 1. Spirit of God, O make our heart A dwelling place for thee; Come down with thy gracious power; Come, Holy spirit, come! 2. Come as the light, and let us see, Our acts of sin and woes; And lead us thro' the paths of life, And in the Holy way. Come as the fire and purge our hearts, Lest they should be perished; And accepted sacrifice, To our great Redeemer. Come as the dew: and sweetly bless; The fruit of earth around; My barrenness rejoice to own, Thy fertilizing power. Come as the dove and spread thy wings, The wings of peaceful love; And let thy church on earth become, Blest as the church above. Come as the wind, with rushing sound, And Pentecostal grace, That all of woman born may see, The glory of thy face. Spirit of God, O make our heart. A dwelling place for thee; Come down with thy gra-cious power; Come, Holy Spirit, come!
