O Day of Rest and Gladness
Author: Christopher Wordsworth Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 811 hymnals Scripture: Acts 2:1 Lyrics: 1 O day of rest and gladness,
O day of joy and light,
O balm of care and sadness,
most beautiful, most bright!
On thee the high and lowly
before th'eternal throne
sing "Holy, holy, holy"
to the great Thee-in-One.
2 On thee at the creation,
the light first had its birth,
on thee for our salvation
Christ rose from depths of earth;
on thee our Lord victorious,
the Spirit sent from heav'n,
and thus on thee most glorious,
a triple light was giv'n.
3 New graces ever gaining
from this our day of rest,
we reach the rest remaining
to spirits of the blest.
To Holy Ghost be praises,
to Father and to Son;
the church her voice upraises
to thee, blest Three-in-One.

O Day of Rest and Gladness
Spirit of God, Descend upon My Heart
Author: George Croly Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 340 hymnals Scripture: Acts 2:4 Lyrics: 1. Spirit of God, descend upon my heart;
Wean it from earth; thro' all its pulses move;
Stopp to my weakness, mighty as Thou art,
And make me love Thee as I ought to love.
2. I ask no dream, no prophet ecstasies,
No sudden rending of the veil of clay,
No angel visitant, no op'ning skies;
But take the dimness of my soul away.
3. Teach me to feel that Thou art always nigh;
Teach me the struggles of the soul to bear;
To check the rising doubt, the rebel sigh;
Teach me the patience of unceasing prayer.
4. Teach me to love Thee as Thine angels love,
One holy passion filling all my frame;
The kindling of the heav'n-descended Dove,
My heart an altar, and Thy love the flame. Used With Tune: MORECAMBE

Day of Pentecost
Author: John Keble Appears in 113 hymnals Scripture: Acts 2:1 First Line: When God, of old, came down from heaven Lyrics: 1 When God, of old, came down from heaven,
In power and wrath he came;
Before his feet the clouds were riven,
Half darkness and half flame.
2 But when he came the second time,
He came in power and love;
Softer than gales at morning prime,
Hovered his holy Dove.
3 The fires that rushed on Sinai down
In sudden torrents dread,
Now gently light a glorious crown
On every sainted head.
4 Like arrows went those lightnings forth,
Winged with the sinner's doom;
But these, like tongues, o'er all the earth
Proclaiming life to come. Topics: The Holy Spirit Used With Tune: ROGET

Spirit of God within Me
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b. 1926 Meter: 7.6.8.7.8.6.8.6 Appears in 10 hymnals Scripture: Acts 2:1-11 Lyrics: 1 Spirit of God within me,
Possess my human frame;
Fan the dull embers of my heart,
Stir up the living flame:
Strive till that image Adam lost,
New minted and restored,
In shining splendor brightly bears
The likeness of the Lord.
2 Spirit of truth within me,
Possess my thought and mind;
Lighten anew the inward eye
By Satan rendered blind:
Shine on the words that wisdom speaks
And grant me pow'r to see
The truth made known to all in Christ,
And in that truth be free.
3 Spirit of love within me,
Possess my hands and heart;
Break through the bonds of self-concern
That seeks to stand apart:
Grant me the love that suffers long,
That hopes, believes and bears;
The love fulfilled in sacrifice,
That cares as Jesus cares.
4 Spirit of life within me,
Possess this life of mine;
Come as the wind of heaven's breath,
Come as the fire divine!
Spirit of Christ, the living Lord,
Reign in this house of clay,
Till from its dust with Christ I rise
To everlasting day.
