Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #261 (1995) Meter: 6.6.6.6.6.6 Scripture: Acts 2 Lyrics: 1 Let every Christian pray,
this day and every day,
come, Holy Spirit, come!
Was not the church we love
commissioned from above?
Come, Holy Spirit, come!
2 The Spirit brought to birth
the church of Christ on earth
to seek and save the lost:
God never has withdrawn,
since that tremendous dawn,
the gifts at Pentecost.
3 Only the Spirit's power
can fit us for this hour:
come, Holy Spirit, come!
Unite, instruct, inspire,
and fill us see your fire:
come, Holy Spirit, come! Topics: Church Mission in the World; Holy Spirit Power of; Holy Spirit Renewal of; Pentecost Day of Languages: English Tune Title: LAUDES DOMINI
