Holy Spirit, ever dwelling


Holy Spirit, ever dwelling in the holiest realms of light; Holy Spirit, ever brooding o’er a world of gloom and night; Holy Spirit, ever raising us from earth to thrones on high; living life-imparting Spirit, thee we praise and magnify. Holy Spirit, ever living as the church’s very life; Holy Spirit, ever striving through her in a ceaseless strife; Holy Spirit ever forming in the church the mind of Christ; thee we praise with endless worship for thy fruit and gifts unpriced. Holy Spirit, ever working through the church’s ministry; quickening, strengthening and absolving, setting captive sinners free; Holy Spirit, ever binding age to age and soul to soul in a fellowship unending; thee we worship and extol. (Timothy Reese)
