|  | 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 always, | 
|  |  | 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! |
