Oh, let the Son of God enfold you with His spirit and his love.

Let him fill your heart and satisfy your soul.

Oh, let him have the things that hold you,

and his spirit like a dove will descend upon your life and make you home.

How long a time intervened in this colon, I don't know, but maybe an hour or more, maybe two or

Don't let his faith fail, Father,
