Your Spirit

by Tasha Cobbs Leonard

Theology & Meaning

Your Spirit is a prayer and invitation for the Holy Spirit's presence and work — drawing on Jesus' promise of the indwelling Counselor in John 14 and the Ezekiel 36 promise to put God's Spirit within His people. The song holds together both the personal indwelling of the Spirit and the corporate outpouring, declaring longing for the fullness of what God has promised.

Worship Leadership Tips

Works in any service focused on the Holy Spirit, surrender, or renewal. Tasha Cobbs Leonard's gospel sensibility makes it particularly warm and inviting — the song doesn't demand the Spirit's presence but longs for it. Lead it with genuine hunger and allow space for the Spirit to respond.

Arrangement Tips

Piano-led with warm gospel feel and light percussion. Allow the first verse to be sparse and intimate before the band joins. The song benefits from space — resist the temptation to fill every bar. Background vocalists can add depth without overwhelming the prayer quality of the song.
