My Constant Companion,
My Comforter is She.
She’s my Advocate;
She guides and supports me.
The Holy Spirit came
To remind me to love,
Even when I’m tempted
To give some schmuck a shove.
“Pray for your enemies,”
The Holy Spirit says, “Beware!
Look at the log in your own eye
Before condemning the sliver out there.”
My Constant Companion
Reminds me to look up
And heed her teachings
When my faith is shook up.
The church is a place
Where we hear Truth speak.
Unless her voice rules there,
It’s just another room, small and weak.
But most of my life
Is not within church walls.
Out there in the tempting world,
I find myself in stormy squalls.
Unless Truth comes out
And walks with me in streets,
My presence is no more helpful
Than anyone else the troubled meets.
So, Holy Spirit guide me.
Stir in me Your Grace.
Help me LISTEN and HEAR as You do
And let LOVE shine in my face.
