Holy Spirit, Come and Lead Us

However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth;

for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak;

and He will tell you things to come.

John 16:13

 

Let the Holy Spirit Lead

 

Let the Holy Spirit lead

in action, speech and thought

in each decision He must lead the way

through every path that must be trod.

 

Let the Holy Spirit lead

in deed, duty and discussion

in each hour of each day may He

be fully seen by others.

 

Let the Holy Spirit lead

for through Him we can be

a light, a lamp, a beacon to all

who may otherwise never see Him.

 

Let the Holy Spirit lead

in want, in will, in worship

for with His loving, faithful guidance

we’ll bring others to His salvation.

 

Let the Holy Spirit lead

give Him complete control of all

in Him we find such a wonderful peace

that surpasses our understanding.

 

Let the Holy Spirit lead

let Him have His way with thee

though rugged, steep the path may be

there is no better way to go.

 

Let the Holy Spirit lead

let Him have complete control with thee

for when we find in Him we hide

this is where all blessings flow.

 

He’ll mold us, He’ll make us

and with grace He’ll sustain us

guiding, leading, faithfully convicting

in everything He’ll bring us to

the place we have been seeking.

If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God,

who gives to all liberally and without reproach,

and it will be given to him.

James 1:5
