A Prayer.

By Mrs. L. D. A. Stuttle

OH ! Spirit of the living God; Come down and fill my soul I pray, Come touch my tongue with living fire As on the Pentecostal day! That every thought, and every word, May be directed by the Lord.

My great dependence may I feel, My weakness and my follies know, With contrite heart may I confess, My utter poverty and woe, Enlighten thou my darkened mind, For I am wretched, poor and blind.

Then shall I speak thy glorious truth, With fervent zeal, and grace divine, When with illuminating power, Thy Spirit on my heart shall shine, When all my steps the Lord shall guide, And angels journey by my side.

Mrs. L. D. A. Stuttle.
