Gracious Spirit, Heed Our Pleading Lyrics

Gracious Spirit, heed our pleading

Fashion us all anew

It's your leading that we're needing

Help us to follow you

Come, come

Come, Holy Spirit, come

Come, come

Come, Holy Spirit, come

Come to teach us, come to nourish

Those who believe in Christ

Bless the faithful, may they flourish

Strengthened by grace unpriced

Come, come

Come, Holy Spirit, come

Come, come

Come, Holy Spirit, come

Guide our thinking and our speaking

Done in your holy name

Motivate all in their seeking

Freeing from guilt and shame

Come, come

Come, Holy Spirit, come

Come, come

Come, Holy Spirit, come

Not mere knowledge, but discernment

Nor rootless liberty

Turn disquiet to contentment

Doubt into certainty

Come, come

Come, Holy Spirit, come

Come, come

Come, Holy Spirit, come

Keep us fervent in our witness

Unswayed by earth's allure

Ever grant us zealous fitness

Which you alone assure

Come, come

Come, Holy Spirit, come

Come, come

Come, Holy Spirit, come
