Spirit of God

Spirit of God
You heard my plea!
I cried out
and you came to dwell in me.

You flowed thru my veins
like life-giving blood
to the parts of my body
shut off from your love.

You flowed thru my eyes
and they opened!
I see your beauty
around and within me.

You flowed thru my ears
and they opened!
I hear your word
and listen for your calling.

You flowed thru my lips
and opened my mouth!
I sing praises
and give glory to God.

You flowed thru my arms,
then down to my hands
and they opened!
I use them to serve others
and to hold loved ones
close by my side.

You flowed thru my mind
and it opened, too!
I study and pray daily
to keep it that way.

You flowed thru my heart
which was yours from the start
and it opened!
I feel joy and fulfillment
and love from above.

Spirit of God
You heard my plea!
You are the key
that set me free.

To God be the Glory,
Cindy Yielding
