Holy Spirit

You have never been one prone to drift about and roam                                                                                              You've always desired to come and within us, find a home

You have been sent to us from our Father's throne                                                                                                         You've longed for us to soften our hearts of stone

You come to counsel, to comfort, and to help                                                                                                                         You are a person, a friend, and not a concept

You don't come to us as a rushing mighty wind                                                                                                                   You are very gentle, reassuring, and reside within

O sweet Holy Spirit, teach us to listen to you and to yield                                                                                      Remind us that in so doing, we are sure to be healed

You are with us always so we don't have to be alone                                                                                                 You always thrive to keep us in the 'spirit zone'

You are the one we should rely upon                                                                                                                                                           You truly have a mind of your own

Of you, it has always been known,
that you, we cannot copy nor clone                                                                                                                                                                    

On bowed knees is where we belong                                                                                                                                               That's the place you will make us strong

Curtis Moorman November 30, 2018 at 3:43 PM Curtis, this is absolutely astounding! It is so good to see that there are people on Soup who are not ashamed to proclaim Jesus as their Lord and Savior. Thank you for that witness, My Brother! Between you, James Edward Lee, Sr., Edward Ibeh, and myself, we make a pretty good showing for who we serve. To God be the glory!!
