 Bless Us in Tongues

A Prayer for the Heavenly Language

Bless us in tongues, O Holy Spirit—not a noise of empty air,

But a sacred, heavenly language, a mysterious, holy prayer.

Let our spirits rise and worship in a way the mind can't grasp,

As we lift our voices heavenward, releasing every clasp.

All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them. (Acts 2:4)

Bless our lips with syllables divine, with words unknown to earth,

A private language between our souls and the One who gave us birth.

When we cannot find the words to pray, when groans alone remain,

Let the Spirit intercede through us, washing every stain.

Tongues—not for pride or for a show,

But to build the inner man, to make the spirit grow.

A gift of grace, a heavenly key,

To unlock the depths of mystery.

For anyone who speaks in a tongue does not speak to people but to God. Indeed, no one understands them; they utter mysteries by the Spirit. (1 Corinthians 14:2)

Bless us in our private worship, when we kneel before Your throne.

Let the river flow in unknown syllables, making Your glory known.

Bless us in our gatherings, when interpretation comes,

So the church may be edified and the enemy be struck numb.

So we ask, dear Holy Spirit: fall upon us with this gift.

Let our tongues be loosened, every spiritual barrier lift.

Not for our boasting, not for vain display,

But for deeper communion, for a stronger faith, day by day.

“In My name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues.” (Mark 16:17)

Bless us in tongues, O Lord. We receive by faith today.

Let the heavenly language flow in us as we bow and pray.

Amen.
