Holy Spirit, Fall Upon Me
Holy Spirit, fall upon me,
Like a gentle, cleansing rain.
Wash away the dust and weary,
Breathe new life into my frame.
Holy Spirit, fall upon me,
Like a fire from above.
Burn away the dross within me,
Fill me with Your perfect love.
Holy Spirit, fall upon me,
Like a wind both strong and still.
Move where only You can move,
Bend my heart to know Your will.
Holy Spirit, fall upon me,
In the morning, in the night.
Be my comfort, be my teacher,
Be my ever-present light.
Holy Spirit, fall upon me,
Take the words I cannot pray.
Intercede within my spirit,
Lead me in the narrow way.
Holy Spirit, fall upon me,
Not just once, but every hour.
Fill me with Your holy presence,
Let me know Your peace and power.
Holy Spirit, fall upon me,
I am Yours, and You are mine.
Come and dwell within me fully,
Till Your glory in me shines.

A Prayer for the Holy Spirit
Holy Spirit of the Living God,
Fall upon me now.
Come as the wind—
stir what is stagnant,
awaken what sleeps,
breathe life into my dry bones.
Come as the fire—
burn away what does not belong,
purify my heart,
ignite my love for Jesus.
Come as the rain—
refresh my weary soul,
quench my deepest thirst,
make me fruitful again.
Teach me, Spirit,
for I have so much to learn.
Guide me, Spirit,
for I cannot see the way.
Strengthen me, Spirit,
for I am weak.
Fill me, Spirit,
for I am empty without You.
I open my hands,
my heart,
my life.
Come, Holy Spirit,
and dwell within me.
In Jesus' name,
Amen.
