The Holy Spirit

He counsels like no other
His leadings are beyond wonder
Always caring than any mother
He is loving like a sincere father

Through the heart of man He searches
The truth we need to hear He teaches
Out to the unloved He reaches
The true way to life He preaches

In Him lies the power to guide
Those who are not yet Christ's bride
Saving those that are affected by the devil's tide
And bringing them unto God's side

The lost in the world He leads to the altar
And to the thirsty He shows the living water
He is able to remould man's life like a potter
Always feeding the hungary with heavenly butter
