Come sweet Holy Spirit, light of love divine,

Come and dwell within this humble heart of mine.

Guide each thought and deed, and every word I say,

Sweet Holy Spirit; hear me when I pray.

Come, sweet Holy Spirit and with me abide,

Sweet Holy Spirit; come and be my guide.

Some days are long and dreary,

Some days my heart grows weary;

But I long to help another see

The light of love You bestowed on me.

Come, sweet Holy Spirit and with me reside.

Sweet Holy Spirit; come and be my guide.

If I could touch just one

By some simple deed I’ve done;

A friendly word or just a smile

Then my life would be worthwhile.

Come, sweet Holy Spirit, stay here by my side.

Sweet Holy Spirit; come and be my guide.
