Ye are the temples, Je­sus hath spok­en,
Temples of God’s Ho­ly Spi­rit di­vine;
Have ye re­ceived Him, bid­den Him en­ter,
Make His abode in that poor heart of thine?

Refrain

Have ye re­ceived, since ye be­lieved,
The bless­èd Holy Ghost?
He who was pro­mised, gift of the Fa­ther,
Have ye re­ceived the Ho­ly Ghost?

He who has par­doned sure­ly will cleanse thee,
All of the dross of thy na­ture re­fine;
Cleansed from all sin, His Spi­rit will en­ter,
Fill you and thrill you with pow­er di­vine.

Refrain

Showers of mer­cy, full­ness of bless­ing,
Ever the Spi­rit’s in­dwell­ing attend;
’Tis the en­due­ment, pow­er for ser­vice,
Fruits for your la­bor He sure­ly will send.
