Our series, Hear our Prayer, gives us a glimpse into the prayer lives of saints who have gone before us. May it inspire and encourage us to pray without ceasing and to cultivate a lifestyle of prayer, as they did. This prayer by Charles Spurgeon is for the touch of the Holy Spirit that brings holy joy.
Charles Spurgeon – For the touch of the Spirit
Come and help us, Lord Jesus.
A vision of your face will brighten us;
But to feel your Spirit touching us will make us vigorous.
Oh! for the leaping and walking of the man born lame.
May we today dance with holy joy like David before the ark of God.
May a holy exhilaration take possession of every part of us;
May we be glad in the Lord;
May our mouth be filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing,
“for the Lord hath done great things for us whereof we are glad.”
Amen.
