Author: Shirley Erena Murray (b. 1931) Hymnal: WLP1997 #742 (1997) Meter: 8.7.8.7 First Line: Loving Spirit, loving Spirit Lyrics: 1 Loving Spirit, loving Spirit,
you have chosen me to be;
you have drawn me to your wonder,
you have set your sign on me.
2 Like a mother you enfold me,
hold my life within your own.
Feed me with your very body,
form me of your flesh and bone.
3 Like a father you protect me.
Teach me the discerning eye.
Hoist me up upon your shoulder,
let me see the world from high.
4 Friend and lover in your closeness
I am known and held and blest:
in your promise is my comfort,
in your presence I may rest.
5 Loving Spirit, loving Spirit,
you have chosen me to be;
you have drawn me to your wonder,
you have set your sign on me. Topics: Hymns and Spiritual Songs Pentecost Scripture: 2 Corinthians 1:21-22 Languages: English Tune Title: OMNI DIE
