Flowing River (Pour Your Holy Spirit Upon Me)

This is a useful song by Rita Baloche for situations you might use a Vene Sancte.  It’s a highly syncopated modern chant if you like. It works as a hushed song until “Like a living stream.” We got it out of The Source: New Songs, a collection I was blogging and then forgot – I’ll get back to it sometime. Just repeat it until the liturgical movement requires you to stop.

You can hear a sample of a MIDI backing and purchase it here. The chords are available here as well, although they put in in F and the music I have is in D. The only way I know to get the music is to buy the book which can be purchased online here, but I’m sure is available elsewhere.

Pour Your Holy Spirit upon me,
Let Your presence fill me up;
Make my life a flowing river
Of Your everlasting love.

Like a living stream
Flowing from Your mighty ocean;
Purify in me
My desire and my devotion;
Make my life a flowing river
Of Your everlasting love.
