Holy Spirit Come

Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)



Here’s a little something we can keep between us two,
It’s just a little something that I hope you’ll find is true.
The Word is never wrong; it’s always true and has one meaning,
It’s the mirror on the visor of this life as you go streaming.

Streaming down the highway of this choice that you’ve been given
When you look into it deeply you can see how you’ve been living
There’s another one that testifies, He came down from above,
He leads us into all that’s true and to our Father’s love.

We cry holy, holy, holy, to the Lamb in all our pleasure,
Holy, holy, holy, now at last we have our treasure.
Holy, holy, holy, Lord you’re all that we desire,
Holy, holy, holy, pour us out now we’re on fire.

If you want to join us in the clouds when we’re made new,
The time is now, except the gift, that Jesus offers you.
