A Call for Communion

Speak with me Abba, wash away

All that stands in my way

I need to hear your voice today

Come Abba! Break through!

All that stands between me and you

I need these moments to commune

Your presence a comfort, wrap around.

Sweet presence, a stillness

No where else is found

I need you Lord.

Make room!

Oh body, mind and soul,

Remove all that hinders

Let it go

My prayer is from so long ago;

**"Lord, make me fit to be your dwelling"

Come Abba to my tent

My earthly vessel fill

May you find room, within my life

To show your Glory still

I need you Lord not just today

I need you Lord, come here to stay

To be my constant friend and guide

To be my covering, and by my side
I need you.

* "Oh, I need thee...

Every hour, I need thee"
