gave you the wisdom and power you need;

all you are longing for;
live out your calling to love and to lead.

open the secrets your life has concealed;
though you are wounded,
know you are not to blame;
cry out your story till truth is revealed.

utter your cry aloud,
honor the wisdom God gave you at birth;
speak to your elders
till they have heard your voice;
sing out your vision of healing on earth. Used With Tune: TWILIGHT

Mach' Dir in unsern Herzen
Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Mark 10:13-16 Lyrics: Chor:
O heiliger Geist! sei heut und allezeit mit uns.
Gemeine:
1 Mach' Dir in unsern Herzen,
eig'ne und ewige Wohnung:
Tilg' alle Sünd' und Schmerzen,
geuß auf uns aus Deine Salbung.
2 O heiliger Geist!
erleucht' heut unser' Sinnen:
Gieb, was du uns heiß'st,
so mög'n wir Gut's beginnen.
3 O Du Liebhaber aller Frommen,
Du Tröster der Elenden:
Du wollest uns auch zu Hülf' kommen,
Dein'n Willen zu vollenden.
4 Du reinigst der Gläubigen Gemüth
von Irrthum, Sünden und Thorheit:
Mach' rein unser Herz durch Deine Güt',
und leit' uns in alle Wahrheit;
5 Auf daß von uns hie der wahre Heiland,
recht werde erkannt:
Den allein sehen die reinen
Herzen im wahren Glauben.
6 Die Propheten han durch Dein' Macht,
die Zukunft Christi längst verkündigt und an Tag gebracht.
Die Apostel hast Du gestärkt, daß sie durch ihre Predigt
offenbart haben Christi Werk.
7 Durch Dich ist das tröstlich' Evangelium
ausgebreit't, und erbaut das Christenthum:
Mit Wunder und Zeichenkräftig bewähret,
und schnell, als ein Platzregen gemehret.
8 Du bist der Heils-Bronn, das rein Wasser,
welches fleußt vom Gnaden-Thron:
Du erfrisch'st das Herz, erweichst es,
und schreibst drein Dein neu Gesetz.
9 Du sammlest allhie Christi Gemein,
von der Welt aus allen Zungen in Ein:
Du giebst ihnen Lieb' zu Christi Lehr',
schaffst auch, das sie leben zu Gottes Ehr'.
10 Darum bitten wir demüthiglich:
O erhör' uns heut heiliger Geist gnädiglich:
Denn ohn' Dich ist unser Thun umsonst,
und ohn' Deine Hülf' kommt niemand zu Gottes Gunst.
11 Du, durch den alle Heiligen sind bekehrt,
durch des Gaben sie auch sind gelehrt,
im Glauben gestärkt und des Heils gewährt:
Du stärk' uns auch im Glauben und Zuversicht,
und thu' Hülf', wenn der feind uns ansicht,
mach uns völlig vor Gottes Angesicht.
12 Und leit' uns zu der ewigen Klraheit.
Amen.
