Author: Shirley Erena Murray Hymnal: Glory to God #293 (2013) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Scripture: Colossians 1:9-10 First Line: Loving Spirit, loving Spirit Lyrics: 1 Loving Spirit, loving Spirit,
you have chosen me to be,
you have drawn me to your wonder,
you have set your sign on me.
2 Like a mother you enfold me,
hold my life within your own,
feed me with your very body,
form me of your flesh and bone.
3 Like a father you protect me,
teach me the discerning eye,
hoist me up upon your shoulder,
let me see the world from high.
4 Friend and lover, in your closeness
I am known and held and blessed:
in your promise is my comfort,
in your presence I may rest.
5 Loving Spirit, loving Spirit,
you have chosen me to be,
you have drawn me to your wonder,
you have set your sign on me.
