Come, Holy Spirit, Intercede
Heartbreak; It's all around us!The world groans!God's Spirit if we ask/trust Himwill intercede with unshakeable hope
Hope; it's above us, beneath us and hems us in on every sideIt lifts us up on eagle wings.It is no magic cure for life's ills and achesbut it is strength, joy and peace in the thick of them!It is love's/God's gift to us when we put our trust in Him.
Isa.40:31 NIVbut those who hope in the Lord
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.
Remember your word to your servant,for you have given me hope.
Come Holy Spirit, intercedeAnoint my fumbling questAnd through redemption's favours pleadOn my behalf, Thy best/the rest
Come, Holy Spirit, stir my soulTo hope in Thee aloneAs I relinquish full control With this; Thy will be done
Once I, a woman at the wellWould vainly draw and drawBut could not satisfy or quellMy thirst with loot or law
Until, my Lord, You bid me comeTo trust and taste and seeThe Living Water flowing fromThe fount of Calvary
The Fount that drew Thee from Thy throneHope's groaning breach to spanTo be the Lamb that would atone And save the soul of man
To rend the temple's veil and thenTo overthrow the graveYou crushed the serpent's head. AmenWith love, mighty to save
Come, Holy Spirit, intercedeWith discipline divineTill Gethsemane-like groans concede Not my will, Lord, but Thine
Come, Holy Spirit, intercedeUntil ''I hear Thy final verdict plead Salvation's gift of grace
And then forevermore to liftMy voice, with ceaseless breathTo praise the Giver of love's giftThat saved my soul from death

John 11:25-26Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?”
