Author: Brian Hoare (b. 1935) Meter: 7.7.7.7 with alleluia Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 All together in one place
friends of Jesus met to pray,
waiting as the Lord had said
for the Pentecostal day.
Alleluia!
2 All together with one power
poured out when the Spirit came,
touching each and filling all,
rushing wind and burning flame.
Alleluia!
3 All together with one voice,
praising God in every tongue:
languages they never learned,
telling what the Lord had done.
Alleluia!
4 All together with one aim:
bearing witness to their Lord —
sharing faith by word and deed,
preaching Christ, the living Word.
Alleluia!
5 All together still today,
though two thousand years have gone.
Still the Spirit's power is given;
still God's people meet as one.
Alleluia!
6 One in mission, one in faith,
still responding to God's call,
one in telling all the world
Jesus Christ is Lord of all!
