Dearest spirit of the three

Dearest Spirit of the Three

Dare I speak You, humbly,

Twist and turn

Make in me

The striking scars of things unseen

And with a word part the waves

And with a breath raise the graves

All we do

Never stays

Yet Ghost of God you remain

Like a melody of unsung tune

Or un-smelt scent of sweet perfume

Nature waves

Mankind moves

To taste, to breathe, to notice you

Shouldered dove descend, descend! (Matt 3:16)

As you did on the Son of Man

Heaven’s Voice

Clear demand

My chosen one; hear Him! (Luke 9:35)

Love and joy, patience kind (Gal 5:22-23)

All good things in men, bind

Self control

Peace of mind

These, your fruits, we, the vine (John 15:8)

Once veiled specter, make us sons! (Rom 8:14)

Bear us witness in words undone, (Rom 8:16, 26)

Blessed comfort

Shepherd’s song

Spring of living water, come

Inexpressible deity, rest us sure

Sealed, in your promise, we endure

Mystery, holy,

Blameless, pure

Our only good; our only cure.
