When your spirit touches me
My heart and soul are set free
Always with you I wish to be
Never to stray away from thee.

Your Holy Spirit full of love
I wish to hold and know more of
As it descends from up above
And touches me like a dove

Greater love I have not known
Or ever to call my very own
Your love to me you have shown
And with it too my faith has grown

You bring great joy into my heart
And I know from the start
That the glory that you impart
From me never will depart

I'll follow you as your child
As you show me mercy mild
Protecting me from all things wild
Never allowing me to be beguiled

All good things come from you
You give me peace and shelter too
All the storms that I come to
You never fail to see me through

You are sweet as summer rain
And comfort me when I'm in pain
Though there are trials that remain
You help me without the least disdain

And even though sometimes I fall
You help me up and through it all
Your mercy you do not forestall
And I, with kindness, you enthrall

You always answer my every prayer
And show me how much you do care
And even when I do despair
You let me know you are still there

I thank you Lord for everything
All the good that you do bring
Into my life and make me sing
All praise to you, my beloved King
