GHOST

Ghost

Snippet

The dove descending breaks the air
With flame of incandescent terror
Of which the tongues declare
The one discharge from sin and error.
The only hope, or else despair
Lies in the choice of pyre or pyre-
To be redeemed from fire by fire.

Who then devised the torment? Love.
Love is the unfamiliar Name
Behind the hands that wove
The intolerable shirt of flame
Which human power cannot remove.
We only live, only suspire
Consumed by either fire or fire.” 
― T.S. Eliot, Four Quartets

Scripture

He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father’s which sent me.  These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.  But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. John 14:24-26 AKJV

Ghost Mercy Me

There's a ghost
There's a ghost inside of me
Not like those drips in ol' bedsheets
Saying "trick or treat"
Different
Oh this ghost is different
Not one that leaves me scared to death
But one that puts my fear to rest

Oh-oh-ohhhh, oh-ohh
Holiness keep haunting me
Oh-oh-ohhhh, oh-ohh
You're my hope, You're my peace
Ironic in a way
I'm no longer afraid
And the ghost is to blame

There's a ghost
There's a ghost inside of me
Not something from some campfire story
Where I'm terrified to sleep
Opposite
This ghost is quite the opposite
He came just like a welcomed friend
I was comforted

Oh-oh-ohhhh, oh-ohh
Holiness keep haunting me
Oh-oh-ohhhh, oh-ohh
You're my hope, You're my peace
Ironic in a way
I'm no longer afraid
And the ghost is to blame

I'm not afraid
I'm not afraid!
No longer afraid

Lead me through the darkness
Lead me through the unknown
Oh-ohh, lead me
Holy Ghost
Lead me through the darkness
Lead me through the unknown
Oh-ohh, lead me
Holy Ghost
Lead me through the darkness
Lead me through the unknown
Oh-ohh, lead me
Holy Ghost
Lead me through the darkness
Lead me through the unknown
Oh-ohh, lead me
Holy Ghost

Sentence Prayer

Lead me through the darkness
Lead me through the unknown
Oh, lead me

Holy Ghost  Mercy Me
