God of deep longing,
God of the heart's true rest:
hold us in fathomless peace,
guard us with unwaning love.
2 Spirit of promise,
Spirit of purpose,
Spirit of ceaseless prayer:
bathe us in life full and free,
kindle our wonder and hope.
3 Word who comes to us,
Word who lives with us,
Word who disturbs and heals:
silence our chattering fears,
waken our unconscious faith.
4 Word true and faithful,
hope-bringing Spirit,
God of enfolding love:
come in your fullness and grace;
work through our lives for your praise. Scripture: Galatians 4:4-6 Languages: English Tune Title: HESYCHIA
