Since the Holy Ghost Abides (Canaan Melodies #45)

A powerful song about the peace, rest, joy and love that comes into the heart of the one who has received the Holy Spirit.

LYRICS:

1 Peace, blessed peace is filling now my soul,
Since He pardon’d all my sin;
Love, perfect love in billows o’er me roll,
Since He cleans’d my heart within.

Refrain:
Peace, perfect peace! Love perfect love!
Sweeping o’er my soul in heav’nly tides!
Rest, perfect rest! Joy, perfect joy!
Is mine since the Holy Ghost abides.

2 Rest, perfect rest now all my nature stills,
Since His promis’d grace is mine;
Joy, perfect joy my happy spirit thrills,
Since the day I said, “I’m Thine.”

3 Fire, holy fire is burning in my heart,
And the glory rolls in tides;
Pow’r, holy pow’r is filling ev’ry part,
Since the Holy Ghost abides.

4 Light, perfect light shines on this holy way;
Twice He touch’d my blinded eyes;
Sight, perfect sight my vision has today,
Healed by blood that sanctifies.
