10377. Holy Spirit, Teacher Thou

1 Holy Spirit, teacher Thou,
At the throne of grace we bow;
Come, perform Thine office now,
Teach us evermore.

Refrain:
Holy Spirit, teach us ever,
Comfort, guide and leave us never;
Dwell within us, we implore,
Now and evermore.

2 Comforter indeed Thou art,
Giving strength to every heart;
Let Thy presence ne’er depart,
Comfort evermore. [Refrain]

3 Sent to be our guide today,
Keep us in the narrow way;
Grant that we may never stray,
Guide us evermore. [Refrain]

4 Teacher, comforter, and guide,
In our hearts do Thou abide;
And in life, whate’er betide,
Help us evermore. [Refrain]
