Chief Johnny P. Curtis was a singer/songwriter of the San Carlos Apache Tribe. He has been involved in both Native American music and gospel music since the 1970's. I just learned that he passed on to glory last month.
While perusing his songs, a popular one that I enjoyed was "Spirit of God." I like the notion of "All-Truth" in the lyrics, and the instrumental accompaniment arguably gives a nod to Native American musical style. Lyrics below:
Spirit of God, my Spirit of the Lord.
Come now--refill me, refill me
Teach me, guide me into All-Truth, Holy Spirit,
Come and fill me now, fill me now, O God.
Love of God, my love of my Jesus,
Come now--refill me, refill me.
Teach me, guide me into All-Truth
I need you day and night
Come and fill me now, fill me now O God.
O Holy Spirit, my Lord Holy Spirit
Oh, teach me, guide me into All-Truth,
I need you day and night
Come and fill me now, fill me now O God.
