2 It is the Spirit that renews The Souls of every one That are brought home to Jesus Christ, Whose darkness now is gone.
3 All light and comfort doth proceed From his sweet influence; 'Tis dangerous then him to grieve, You may perceive from hence.
4 By him you live, by him you walk, Without his help can't we Do any good; O therefore now Let him not grieved be.
5 But bless the Lord he's not withdrawn, O sing his praises forth, And live to him as long as you Do live upon the Earth.
