Sermon by Rev. Jake Zabel of St. John’s Evangelical Lutheran Church in Dalby, Queensland, Australia.

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 Saviour’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;

Thy pure temple I would be,

Wholly dedicate to Thee.

1

O enter, Lord, Thy temple,

Be Thou my spirit’s guest,

Who gavest me, the earth-born,

A second birth more blest.

Thou in the Godhead, Lord,

Though here to dwell Thou deignest,

For ever equal reignest,

Art equally adored.

2

O come, and let me know Thee,

And feel Thy power within,

The power that breaks our fetters

And rescues us from sin;

So wash and cleanse Thou me

That I may serve Thee truly,

And render honour duly

With perfect heart to Thee.

3

’Tis Thou, O Spirit, teachest

The soul to pray aright;

Thy songs have sweetest music,

Thy prayers have wondrous might;

Unheard they cannot fall,

They pierce the highest heaven,

Till He His help hath given

Who surely helpeth all.

4

The whole wide world, O Spirit,

Within Thy power doth rest,

And hearts of men Thou turnest

As Thou dost deem it best.

In every time and place

Let days of peace delight us,

In bonds of love unite us;

O grant to us Thy grace.

5

Defend, O Lord, our rulers,

The reign or right uphold;

Adorn in gracious favour,

With wisdom all the old,

With piety our youth,

With godliness our nation,

That each in his own station

May walk in ways of truth.

6

Our path in all things order

According to Thy mind;

And when this life is over

And all must be resigned,

O grant us then to die

With calm and fearless spirit,

And after death inherit

Eternal life on high.

1

Breathe on me, Breath of God,

Fill me with life anew,

That I may love what Thou dost love,

And do what Thou wouldst do.

2

Breathe on me, Breath of God,

Until my heart is pure,

Until my will is one with Thine,

To do and to endure.

3

Breathe on me, Breath of God,

Till I am wholly Thine,

Until this earthly part of me

Glows with Thy fire divine.

4

Breathe on me, Breath of God:

So shall I never die,

But live with Thee the perfect life

Of Thine eternity.

1

O Spirit of life, O Spirit of God,

In every need Thou bringest aid,

Thou comest forth from heaven’s high throne,

From God the Father and the Son,

O Spirit of life, O Spirit of God.

2

O Spirit of life, O Spirit of God,

Make us to love Thy sacred Word.

Thy holy flame of love impart,

That love for all may fill each heart,

O Spirit of life, O Spirit of God.

3

O Spirit of life, O Spirit of God,

Increase our faith in our dear Lord,

Unless Thy grace the power should give,

None can believe in Christ and live.

O Spirit of life, O Spirit of God.

4

O Spirit of life, O Spirit of God,

Enlighten us by Thu blest Word.

To us the heavenly Father show,

And teach us His dear Son to know,

O Spirit of life, O Spirit of God.

5

O Spirit of life, O Spirit of God,

By Thee our souls to heaven are led.

Make us to fight with valour here,

And reign with Thee in glory there,

O Spirit of life, O Spirit of God.

6

O Spirit of life, O Spirit of God,

Forsake us not in need or death.

We honour Thee and sing Thy praise

With thanks unceasing all our days,

O Spirit of life, O Spirit of God.
