The Spirit Within

Whispers that gently touch my soul
Are those I love to hear
For I know it's the Holy Spirit
Whispering, "I am always near."

Because I know He dwells within
I am peaceful and content
For when I accepted Jesus
The Spirit to me He sent.

He was sent to light my way
To comfort and calm my soul
I know He'll always be with me
Just as my Lord foretold.

My Jesus couldn't stay on earth
He died on the cross for me
He had to fulfill His Father's plan
To rise and set me free.

He knew I would need a helper
To face life's trials and pain
He promised to send a Comforter
And into my heart He came.

The spirit of Him is always here
Within my heart and soul
It's a comfort to know He's near
He was sent to make me whole.
