 1  O Lord, Thou art the Spirit now

       Who in our spirit lives;

    One spirit have the two become,

       Which oneness to us gives.

 

 2  Thy Spirit with our spirit, Lord,

       The witness ever bears

    That we the Father's children are

       And of God's glory heirs.

 

 3  'Tis in our spirit Thee we touch

       Thy riches to enjoy,

    And as the Spirit Thou dost give

       Thyself without alloy.

 

 4  'Tis in our spirit we may walk

       And follow Thee alway,

    While, as the Spirit, Thou dost lead

       And light impart each day.

 

 5  In spirit, by Thy Spirit, Lord,

       We live and worship Thee;

    Thou, in our spirit, thru Thine own

       Strengtheneth constantly.

 

 6  In spirit, with Thy Spirit, Lord,

       We offer prayer to Thee,

    While, as the Spirit, Thou in us

       Groanest unutterably.

 

 7  We to our spirit would return

       And there would contact Thine;

    'Tis in the spirit we may share

       Our heritage divine.

 

 8  What oneness, O my Lord, is this —

       Two spirits intertwine!

    Thy Spirit in our spirit lives,

       And ours abides in Thine!
