Come, Holy Spirit! Awake My Soul!

 
Come, Holy Spirit!  Awake my soul!
Well up inside of me, life-giving flow!
Come, Holy Spirit, and make complete
The Father’s will for me, all I can be:
Created for your love, redeemed by Jesus’ blood.
Come, Holy Spirit!  Awake my soul!

Come, Holy Spirit! My heart renew!
Your beauty my delight!  The veil remove
To see all others throughout the world
With Kingdom eyes of faith and hope restored:
To see as Jesus sees God’s will and human need
Come, Holy Spirit!  Awake my soul!

I called; you answered, and made me bold
To ask for even more than I can hold!
Bring waves of healing from Jesus’ throne!
Your heart become my heart, your prayer my own!
To see as Jesus sees God’s will and human need.
Come, Holy Spirit!  Awake my soul!
