The Comforter

1In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion.

2Deliver me in thy righteousness, and cause me to escape: incline thine ear unto me, and save me.

3Be thou my strong habitation, whereunto I may continually resort: thou hast given commandment to save me; for thou art my rock and my fortress.

4Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.

5For thou art my hope, O Lord GOD: thou art my trust from my youth.

6By thee have I been holden up from the womb: thou art he that took me out of my mother’s bowels: my praise shall be continually of thee. (Psalm 71:1-6, King James Version)

The Comforter

Oh Holy Spirit,
Thee Comforter of all,
Showering down upon us,
Your mercy and love.

Glorious wings
Covering us this day,
From Your heavenly throne above,
Grant us courage and strength,
Striving to live our lives
In a humble manner,
Carrying Jesus’ example
As our righteous banner.

Amen.
