May the Spirit Burn

Burning within us
following its call
may the Spirit burn
brightly in us all

Not putting out the fire
no dimming of the flame
following our Master’s call
for this alone he came

Thanking God Ever

Joyfully rejoicing
thanking God ever
stopping to enjoy
the bounty that he gives
our cups overflowing
his grace springing forth
where we notice or not

Responding too little
needing to remember
the thanks that we give him
as much for us as for God
for we need him
more than we imagine
all of our lives
should be spent
singing praises to God
