Notes About The Poem

It is very hard living in this world and, that is why we need all of the LORD
that is available to us.  Why someone wouldn't want to be filled with HIS
SPIRIT is a mystery to me.

The Need of His Infilling

The Need of His Infilling

Father, when I try to express to You 
what my I feel down deep in my heart,
my words fall so short that only Your Spirit’s
words to You can I impart.

Tis why I need the language of Your Spirit
flowing deeply from within,
to come before Your presence Father
to express to You my gratitude for saving  me from my sins.

For Your precious Holy Spirit, Father
has shown me a better road,
with His language within, He delivers me
of all of my heavy loads.

You say, you don’t want this experience
with all of its joys and peace,
yet living a life that is discouraged
and even in total defeat.

Sounds so futile to me by brothers
why not give in to Him and His Spirit do try,
for the language of the Spirit is God’s perfect will
and  on it you can always rely.
