Christ, our ascended Lord,
Sends down His Spirit from on high,
According to His word.
All hail the day of Pentecost,
The coming of the Holy Ghost!
2 The Spirit by His heavenly breath
Creates new life within;
He quickens sinners from the death
Of trespasses and sin.
All hail the day of Pentecost,
The coming of the Holy Ghost!
3 The things of Christ the Spirit takes,
And to our hearts reveals;
Our body He His temple makes,
And our redemption seals.
All hail the day of Pentecost,
The coming of the Holy Ghost!
4 Come, Holy Spirit, from above,
With Thy celestial fire;
Come, and with flames of zeal and love
Our hearts and tongues inspire.
All hail the day of Pentecost,
The coming of the Holy Ghost!
Amen. Topics: The Church Year Whitsunday- The Holy Spirit Languages: English Tune Title: MEIRINGEN
