The Spirit’s Intercession

Thank you, Lord
for the spirit’s intercession
when my prayers, too weak,
too feeble, pale reflections of my soul
oh to have the words to lift to you
oh my God, to lay at your throne
praise, thanksgiving, petitions
Only sighs, within my soul
too great for words to evoke
Happy I am for these words
this promise in Paul’s letter
the assurance of our comfort
the spirit giving voice
to all our sighs
words that touch
the heart of God
