Calling on His Spirit - Poem by Raymond A. Foss

Calling on God’s Spirit
living inside of me
answering his calling
choosing to serve for thee

When I look out the window
the wonders all around
knowing you are with me
all the days of my life

The example of his service
your amazing grace
poured out for all of us
the whole human race

Fulfilling the prophecy
the promise to the people of old
that you would come to save
just as had been foretold

Yet more than this,
the helper deep inside
guiding each of our steps
along this path of life

Going where you would lead
answering our shepherd’s call
calling on His Spirit
telling me where to go
