There's a Ghost Inside of Me — A Branch In the Vine

This fall we are again with our dear Eli, getting ready to celebrate his “Halloween time” birthday. And again this year we see ghosts and goblins, scarecrows and pumpkins punctuating the yards all around.

So again I’m thinking about a Ghost — the Holy Ghost, the Giver of Life and my indwelling Source. And again I’m sharing about the Holy Spirit with my precious grandsons. What better way than with this fun but deeply true song.

Thank you, Mercy Me, for giving me a way to speak truth into young lives and hearts.

There's a ghost
There's a ghost inside of me
Not like those draped in old bed sheets
Saying "trick or treat"
Different
Oh, this ghost is different
Not one that leaves me scared to death
But one that puts my fear to rest

Oh, holiness keep haunting me
Oh, you're my hope, you're my peace
Ironic in a way
I'm no longer afraid
And the ghost is to blame

There's a ghost
There's a ghost inside of me
Not something from some campfire story
Where I'm terrified to sleep
Opposite
This ghost is quite the opposite
He came just like a welcomed friend
And I was comforted

Oh, holiness keep haunting me
Oh, you're my hope, you're my peace
Ironic in a way
I'm no longer afraid
And the ghost is to blame

I'm not afraid
I'm not afraid
No longer afraid

Lead me through the darkness
Lead me through the unknown
Oh, lead me holy ghost
Lead me through the darkness
Lead me through the unknown
Oh, lead me holy ghost
Lead me through the darkness
Lead me through the unknown
Oh, lead me holy ghost
Lead me through the darkness
Lead me through the unknown
Oh, lead me holy ghost
