There's a Sweet, Sweet Spirit

1.  There's a sweet, sweet Spirit in this place,
    And I know that it's the Spirit of the Lord;
    There are sweet expressions on each face,
    And I know they feel the presence of the Lord.

Refrain:
    Sweet Holy Spirit,
    Sweet heavenly Dove,
    Stay right here with us,
    Filling us with Your love;
    And for these blessings
    We lift our hearts in praise.
    Without a doubt we'll know 
    that we have been revived 
    When we shall leave this place.

2.  There are blessings you cannot receive
    Till you know Him in His fullness and believe;
    You're the one to profit when you say,
    "I am going to walk with Jesus all the way."
    (Refrain)
