1 Don’t resist the Holy Spirit,
Sinner, heed His loving voice;

For He comes to save thy soul;
Taste His love so kindly given,
Humbly yield to His control. [Refrain]

And the bliss of perfect love. [Refrain]

4 Don’t resist the Holy Spirit,
He has called you oft before;
This may be His final visit,
If you open not the door. [Refrain]
