WHEN THE HOLY SPIRIT COMES TO VISIT  

 By Frank E. Henrich  January 19,2008

How fragrant the aroma
       From a slight breeze
   Moving among the flowers 
       Of a spring garden. 

   Our nostrils inhale
       Grasping its delights
   Wanting to hold on
       To this wonder of wonders. 

   So it is also true
       When the Holy Spirit
   Comes and stirs our spirit
       A wonder of wonders it is.

   Our soul sings in harmony
       With the bliss of angels,
   The Earthly life fades
       And joyful peace fills us.

   That is what happens
       When the Holy Spirit
   Comes to visit our spirit,
       Precious are those moments.

   Come again, sweet Dove
       My soul does languish
   For your refreshing touch
      For your inspiration and love.
