Refilling the Spirit

One Spirit within us
given by Christ
at our baptism indwelling
giving us life

Yet refilling the Spirit
as we are poured out
emptied to be filled
a blessing of love

Emptied again
refilled with God’s Spirit
a cycle forever
as we are vessels

Filled with the Spirit
Christ in our lives
giving as He did
heaven the prize
