| 1 | Praying always in the spirit, |
| | | Never in the flesh or mind! |
| | If this secret we will practise, |
| | | God’s full presence we will find. |
| Chorus |
| | | Praying always in the spirit |
| | | | Is the secret we are told! |
| | | In the spirit, God to contact, |
| | | | Is the secret we must hold! |
| 2 | Praying always in the spirit, |
| | | Never by our human thought! |
| | Fellowship with God the Spirit |
| | | Only thus to us is brought. |
| 3 | Praying always in the spirit, |
| | | Thus expressing God’s desire; |
| | Staying with the Lord in spirit, |
| | | We’ll be wholly set afire. |
| 4 | Praying always in the spirit, |
| | | Even groaning from within, |
| | Thus we utter God’s intention |
| | | By the Spirit’s discipline. |
| 5 | Praying always in the spirit, |
| | | In the holiest place divine; |
| | It is only in the spirit |
| | | God and we in oneness twine. |
| 6 | Praying always in the spirit, |
| | | ’Tis the only way of prayer; |
| | All the fulness of the Godhead |
| | | By this secret we may share. |
