Tune: Morning Hymn

('New every morning is the love')

Based on a prayer by St Ambrose (337-397AD)

********

O Lord, who has mercy on all

Forgive me my sins, I not fall

Mercifully kindle in me

The fire of your Spirit brightly

 

Take away from me heart of stone

Give me a heart of flesh alone

To love and adore you, a heart

To delight in you every part

 

And too follow you constantly

And too enjoy you thankfully

Holy Spirit, who in hearts live

Of believers, you us grace give

                  Thanks SR. This, and today's poem of mine, is in a short series from a Christian book I read.
