THE SPIRIT DWELLS IN ME
1. Oft before the
Lord, I was praying earnestly,
Hoping I from sin
might be set free;
Then one day in
mercy the Lord revealed in me
How the Spirit
dwells in me.
Refrain
Yes, the Spirit
dwells in me,
Giving me such
liberty.
He hast set me free
from sin,
Brought new songs
of praise within;
Yes, the Spirit
dwells in me.
2. Such a crippled
child, full of weakness for so long,
l knew well that l
should be made strong.
Joy swept o'er my
soul, when the Spirit came along
And revealed that
He's in me.
3. I can testify of
the Spirit's pow'r inside,
For my heart is
fully opened wide.
I have turned away
from all works of sin and pride,
For the Spirit
dwells in me.
4. Now I know for
sure I can see my Savior's face,
For the Lord did
all my sin erase;
And a crown for me
is prepared in that blest place.
Yes, He ever lives
in me!
