THE HOLY SPIRIT.
3 He came sweet influence to impart,
A gracious, willing guest,
While he can find one humble heart,
One heart wherein to rest.
4 And every virtue we possess,
And every victory won,
And every thought of holiness,
Are his, and his alone.
5 Spirit of purity and grace,
Our weakness pitying see ;
0 make our hearts thy dwelling place 1
O make them more like thee !

The witnessing and sealing Spirit. Rom. viii. 14, ltt.
1 7HY should the children of a King
’ ’ Go mourning all their days?
Great Comforter, descend, and bring
Some tokens of thy grace.
2 Dost thou not dwell in all thy saints,
And seal them heirs of heaven ?
When wilt thou banish my complaints,
And show my sins forgiven ?
3 Assure my conscience of her part
In the Redeemer’s blood ;
And bear thy witness with my heart
That I am born of God.
4 Thou art the earnest of his love,
The pledge of joys to come ;
And thy soft wings, celestial Dove,
Will safe convey me home.
