Does my life reveal the story
Of God’s creation and His Glory?
Will my faith, through pain and strife
Reflect His love and sacrifice?

Can His loving gentleness
Be in the strength that I possess?
Of His meekness, can I say
In like manner I will stay?

Come rest in me oh Blessed Holy Spirit,
Cleanse my heart, my soul, my spirit,
Help me live as Jesus would
In righteousness, truth and doing good.
