Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
Spirit of God in the clear running water,
Blowing to greatness the trees on the hill;
Spirit of God, in the finger of morning,
REFRAIN
Fill the earth, bring it to birth, and blow where you will.
Blow, blow, blow till I be,
But the breath of the Spirit blowing in me.
VERSE 2
Down in the meadow the willows are moaning,
Sheep in the pasture land cannot lie still;
Spirit of God, Creation is groaning,
VERSE 3
I saw a scar of a year that lay dying,
Heard the lament of a lone Whippoorwill;
Spirit of God, see that cloud crying,
VERSE 4
Spirit of God ev'ry man's heart is lonely,
Watching and waiting and hungry until;
Spirit of God, man longs that you only fulfill.
VERSE 5
Spirit of God may we always bear witness,
To the good news of Christ's graces in us;
Spirit of God, come fill us with your gifts.
VERSE 6
Spirit of Truth, come lead us to perfect truth;
Come speak to us about our Lord, Jesus;
Enlighten us, dispel all our darkness.
VERSE 7
Comforter, Spirit, all Divine live with us;
And fill our hearts with your celestial flame;
Spirit of God, God's breadth and inward light.
