Present Paraclette

Oh, how I love your arms of Love
Underneath you hold me really close 
Cuddling me as though I was your only baby 
Providing me shield from the harsh weather 
O' Sweet Holy Spirit 
Your tender loving care ovewhelms me 
Lowly as you teach me quietness
Opening my eyes to the richness of your grace
My heart to the wellspring of your Joy


Oh how I cherish your company 
hand-in-hand cruising me down the purpose lane
Revealing the Father's Heart to me 
Promting me just how well to lay down my will 
In exchange for your perfect will 
Well structured long before the earth's foundation
If there be a price tag stamped on you 
Poor me never would have acquainted with you 
O' gentle, lowly, darling Paraclette
You make living life on earth a whole lot easier
                                     _ Ngozi Omachi
