Song background:

Merrijane's lyrics for this song explain how to recognize the influence of the spirit and his different roles so sweetly and simply, I really wanted to "write them on the hearts" of my own children to be a guide to them.  So I set out to turn them into a song.  The music is intended to be comforting and lullaby like--hopefully invoking those sweet feelings of the spirit in the children as they sing--so that while they sing about the Holy Ghost, they will actually feel his influence at the same time and really start to understand the reality of it all.  This is a GREAT song for kids and great for baptismal services!

Lyrics: SOFT AND GENTLE HOLY SPIRIT Children’s song

Soft and gentle like a blanket
wrapping me in peace and love:
This is how the Holy Spirit
brings God’s comfort from above.

Soft and gentle like a whisper
teaching me to choose the right:
This is how the Holy Spirit
guides me in the path of light.

Soft and gentle like a candle
glowing, burning warmly, too:
This is how the Holy Spirit
testifies of what is true.
