1 Spirit of refining fire,
Enter Thou my heart!
Free from sin, my soul inspire—
Enter Thou my heart!
Fit me for Thine own employ,
Cleanse from dross and all alloy;
Let me know Thy presence’s joy,
Enter Thou my heart!

2 Spirit of refining fire,
Enter Thou my heart!
Lift me up to something higher,
Enter Thou my heart!
Long my soul hath been content,
With the things of small intent;
Show me that for which I’m meant—
Enter Thou my heart!

3 Spirit of refining fire,
Enter Thou my heart!
Make me know Thine own desire,
Enter Thou my heart!
Turn my thoughts from self to Thee,
Set my soul from bondage free;
Reign and rule in all for me—
Enter Thou my heart!
