Feed the Holy Spirit

Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)



Everything I need is what you’re giving me.
I will not work for money, but only to be free.

Cast your seed upon the soil to see if it will grow.
And let another water it, for now, we have to go.

We’re going to a place that you have never seen before.
We’ll enter through the only gate and knock upon the door.

Jesus is the only gate; my rest, your destination!
Rise up and leave this place before I judge this wicked nation.

I’ll lift you up in my hands now; you are the son of man.
You’ve walked with Jesus every day and made complete His plan.

When you feed the Holy Spirit give Him everything He needs!
Just open up the Word then go on out and plant some seed!
