Lyrics
It is the Holy Spirit, the Comforter,
Which Jesus said He would send into the world,
That changes our character
That changes our character
Into the image of Christ;
Into the image of Christ
And when this is accomplished,
We reflect, as in a mirror,
The glory of the Lord.
That is,
The character of the one
Who thus beholds Christ
Is so like his,
That one looking at him
Sees Christ’s own character
Shining out as from a mirror.
Imperceptibly to ourselves,
Imperceptibly to ourselves,
We are changed day by day
We are changed day by day
From our own ways and will
Into the ways and will of Christ,
Into the loveliness
Of his character.
Into the loveliness
Of his character.
Thus we grow up into Christ,
And unconsciously reflect his image
Thus we grow up into Christ,
And unconsciously reflect his image
Thus we grow up into Christ,
And unconsciously reflect his image
