mark our failure and our falling.
Holy Spirit, come, walk with us tomorrow,
take us as disciples, washed and wakened by your calling.
Refrain:
Take us by the hand and lead us,
lead us through the desert sands,
bring us living water, Holy Spirit, come.

greed of market, pride of nation.
Holy Spirit, come, walk with us tomorrow,
as we pray and struggle through the meshes of oppression. (Refrain)
3 Dust and ashes choke our tongue
in the wasteland of depression.
Holy Spirit, come, walk with us tomorrow.
through all gloom and grieving to the paths of resurrection. (Refrain) Topics: Seasons and Feasts Ash Wednesday Scripture: John 4:10-15 Languages: English Tune Title: [Dust and ashes touch our face]
