Tune: Hawkhurst
('Come gracious Spirit, heavenly dove')
*********
Come to us, Lord, in hours of need
We be your sheep, you still us feed
Give courage, strength, for what we face
You who know all the human race
Grant good outcomes and to us show
Your workings so that we may know
Your presence, you our guard and guide
With and within us you reside
Calm fears, bring peace, and healing too
Our bodies, spirits, souls renew
Trusting in you, we ne'er alone
Your love and mercies to us shown
You shall not leave us comfortless
But you will help and will us bless
Our prayers and thanks shall be to you
To us you ever faithful, true

- Comment from author about the poem: A hymn-poem in 8.8.8.8. An expression of faith personally, and a prayer for self and others, as I know some relatives facing medical 'procedures' and more, in 'hours' soon to come.

The NHS might get more people praying
Prayer plus medicine, I would say.
With much respect for your faith .. and my fingers crossed for a swift positive outcome for those relatives of yours .. and by the way, a well crafted hymn poem with excellent aesthetics .. Neville 🤞
