My Journey to God

The Holy Spirit from Dawn to Dusk

Come, Holy Spirit!
Light a fire in me
so intense
that its flame
will wake the dawn.

Come, Holy Spirit!
Let your breath of life
flow through me
that I may stir the world
as I embrace the day.

Come, Holy Spirit!
Enfold around me
your dove-like wings
as I tuck in the night
with prayers of praise.

Come, Holy Spirit!
From dawn to dusk,
from cradle to grave,
fill my heart fully
that I may leave
Your transforming mark.
