The Spirit of man is the lamp of the Lord
Searching deep and long, where no man can see.
The Spirit of the Lord is the flashlight of the Lord
Illuminating and exposing what’s behind the scree!
The Spirit of the Lord is the voice and sound of God in our soul,
With conscience as megaphone, He blows the alarm when we cross the line.
The Spirit of the Lord seeks to restore us to His original design,
Striving thus to always make us healthy and whole!
Dumb not His gentle whisper that floods your inner being,
Deny Him not your ear when He pursues you to make you hear.
Dim not His light or cover it with a bushel or screen,
Destroy not His witness to the detriment of your wellbeing!
Keep your lamp trimmed such that you are holy and bright,
If the light in you is darkness, how stygian is your blackness!
When the Spirit of God is near and clear, you will have no horror or fear,
Let Him work His will in you that you become a souvenir of His care!
May I live secure and strong, without a hardened heart,
Watered and refreshed, running true to my own simple race,
Learning not to create a wrong or wound, keeping pace with Him,
May I ever walk daily, under the cadence of His saving grace!
