When God the Spirit Came

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b. 1926 Hymnal: Christian Worship (1993) #187 (1993) Meter: 6.6.8.6.6.6 Lyrics: 1 When God the Spirit came Upon his church outpoured In sound of wind and sign of flame, They spread his truth abroad And, filled with the Spirit, Proclaimed that Christ is Lord. 2 What courage, pow'r, and grace That youthful church displayed! To those of ev'ry tribe and race They witnessed unafraid. And, filled with the Spirit, They broke their bread and prayed. 3 They saw God's Word prevail, His kingdom still increase, No part of all his purpose fail, No promised blessing cease And, filled with the Spirit, Knew love and joy and peace. 4 Their theme was Christ alone, The Lord who lived and died, Who rose to his eternal throne At God the Father's side, And, filled with the Spirit, The church was multiplied. 5 So to this present hour Our task is still the same: In Pentecostal love and pow'r His gospel to proclaim And, filled with the Spirit, Rejoice in Jesus' name.
