Send your Spirit’s gifts, O Lord,
on our new pope, Leo XIV…
Send him wisdom
to shape and inform his judgement;
understanding
to interpret the signs of the times;
to guide and direct your church;
fortitude
flowering in courage and strength;
knowledge
to weigh what’s revealed and inspired;
awe before you,
the source of all good;
and personal holiness, free of pride,
ready to do your will, O Lord…
Let patience and mercy, justice and peace,
the Spirit’s grace and the gospel’s joy
shine forth in his preaching, his teaching and work
for the good of all peoples who seek the truth…
Protect us, Lord while we’re awake
and watch over us while we sleep
that awake, we might keep watch with you
and asleep, rest in your peace…
May this be the song
in our new pope’s heart this night…
Lord I’m ready to receive your grace
Lord I’m ready, here I am
Oh, Lord I’m ready to receive your grace
Lord I’m ready, Lord I ‘m ready here I stand
Lord I’m ready, here I am
Oh, Lord I’m ready to receive your grace
Lord I’m ready, Lord I ‘m ready here I stand
Lay your hand upon me so that I may be free
Let Thy Holy Spirit fall on me
Cleanse me from unrighteousness
and fill me with your holiness
let thy Holy Spirit fall on me
Lord, I’m ready… I’m ready…
Lord I’m ready to receive your grace
Lord I’m ready, here I am
Oh, Lord I’m ready to receive your grace
Lord I’m ready, Lord I ‘m ready here I stand
Lord I’m ready, here I am
Oh, Lord I’m ready to receive your grace
Lord I’m ready, Lord I ‘m ready here I stand
Lay your hand upon me so that I may be free
Let Thy Holy Spirit fall on me
Cleanse me from unrighteousness
and fill me with your holiness
let thy Holy Spirit fall on me
let thy Holy Spirit fall on me
Let Thy Holy Spirit fall on me
Cleanse me from unrighteousness
and fill me with your holiness
let thy Holy Spirit fall on me
let thy Holy Spirit fall on me
Said I am ready,
Yes, I am ready…
Oh, oh, oh,
Let thy Spirit fall on me
Oh, cleanse me from unrighteousness
and fill me with your holiness
let thy Holy Spirit fall on me
and fill me with your holiness
let thy Holy Spirit fall on me
Said I am ready
I am ready here
Standing at a throne
Kneeling down before you
Ready to receive
I am ready
Just to wait on you
Bow down before you
I am ready, Lord
Bow down before you
Standing at the altar
Arms stretched out
To receive your love, grace,
peace, joy
Oh, I’m ready, Lord,
I’m ready now...
