Teach me oh Holy Spirit, Thy words so divine,
Everything to understand, in this my time,
Just a little milk as a babe, said My Lord at first,
As we grow in His word, then for more we surely thirst.

Growing stronger each and every day, He doth teach,
So to prepare for Thy Kingdom, Lord we, to Thee do beseech,
Thou said no man need teach us, so may I understand,
Each and every thing You'd have me know in this earthly land?

I know the time will come Lord, for all, the confessing of Thy name,
And once we truly are one with Thee, we'll never be the same,
With the sweetness of Thy word, surging through our heart,
The true oneness with Thy Holy Spirit, we'll never part.

Going on to Glory, to be by Thy side Lord, to worship Thee,
Led by a band of Holy Angels, ever with Thee, there to be,
There on that Heavenly shore, where cool, pure waters dost flow,
There in blessed splendor, with our Savior we will go.

No more pain or sorrow, no more heartache to be,
For these things will have passed away, new things we will see,
Watching for a new Heaven and earth, Lord teach me,
All the things you'd have me know and all You'd have me be.
