People of Prayer

Tune: St Timothy

('O Holy Ghost, thy people bless')

Romans 8 v.26-28

********

The Spirit helps us where we weak

His presence may we seek

And find Him e'en within our hearts

Strength to our inward parts

 

For we know not what we should pray

For, whether it night, day

But the Spirit He intercedes

With God the Father pleads

 

With groans at times, they beyond words

Yet all by the Lord heard

And God who does search the hearts knows

How the Spirit's mind flows

 

For the Spirit prays according

To God's will in each thing

And we know that all things, they do

Work together, 'tis true

 

Work together for good to they

That love God, with him stay

They are the called ones according

To His purpose, we sing

  • Comment from author about the poem: A hymn-poem in 8.6.8.6. The Spirit's help in prayer, where daily/weekly prayer, whether short or long, may become as a shopping-list - nearly the same every day/week. Teh experience of the Spirit in church services need not be as a 'Clique of Choruses' people - seemingly endless repetitive Choruses of not much inspiration, such as Yeah, Hooray, Wooh, etc.

      Thanks 2. They don't have a master - it's informal - oh yeah, hey, whoopee, etc! Not quite my cup of tea.
