fill me with Your Holy Spirit, Lord. never let me loose. keep me tight within Your grasp.
should i not obey, correct me there and then. lead me Your Way. don't let me stray.
guard me from myself. protect me from my own flames. may i be Holy and pleasing to You.
purify me from the inmost being. refined and true solely to You. i desire You, and You alone.
may i live a life faithful to Your Will. make me learn Your Way. may i breathe only by Your Grace. |
