Spirit of the living God,
come upon me
to quicken me and to lighten me
and to brighten my way,
to stir me to life
and move me along,
O Spirit of the living God,
come upon me.

To give me ears to hear
and a tongue to praise,
to awaken my heart
to respond to your call,
O Spirit of the living God,
come upon me.

Either through thunder,
lightning, or the mighty earthquake,
or through a still small voice
quietly whispering,
come upon me.
