G D7/F# G C G/B Am7 D7 G
1. Spirit of God, de - scend up – on my heart;
2. I ask no dream, no pro - phet ec–sta–sies,
3. Hast Thou not bid us love Thee, God and King?
4. Teach me to feel that Thou art al–ways nigh;
5. Teach me to love Thee as Thine an–gels love,
Em F# F#7/A# Bm E7/B D/A A7 D
Wean it from earth; through all its pulses move;
No sud-den rend - ing of the veil of clay,
All, all thine own, soul, heart and strength and mind.
Teach me the strug–gles of the soul to bear.
One ho–ly pas – sion filling all my frame;
D7 Gsus/D D7 Gsus/D D7 Cadd9/D D7
Stoop to my weak - ness, might–y as Thou art,
No angel vis – i- - - tant, no ope - ‘ning skies;
I see thy cross; there teach my heart to cling.
To check the ris – ing doubt, the reb - el sigh,
The baptism of the heav’n-de - - scend-ed Dove,
G G/A G/B C G/D C/E G/D D7 G
And make me love thee as I ought to love.
But take the dimness of my soul a- - - way.
O let me seek Thee, and O let me find!
Teach me the patience of un–an – swered prayer.
My heart an altar, and Thy love the flame.
