telling Christians everywhere:
'Praise the love that Christ revealed,
living, working in our world!'
2 Lose your shyness, find your tongue,
tell the world what God has done:
God in Christ has come to stay.
Live tomorrow's life today!
3 When believers break the bread,
when a hungry child is fed,
praise the love that Christ revealed,
living, working, in our world.
4 Still the Spirit gives us light,
seeing wrong and setting right:
God in Christ has come to stay.
Live tomorrow's life today!
5 When a stranger's not alone,
where the homeless find a home,
praise the love that Christ revealed,
living, working, in our world.
6 May the Spirit fill our praise,
guide our thoughts and change our ways.
God in Christ has come to stay.
Live tomorrow's life today!
7 There's a Spirit in the air,

living, working, in our world. Topics: The Holy Spirit in the Church Enlightening and Renewing the Church; Children; Holy Communion; Social Concern; Witness Used With Tune: LAUDS
