Author: Shirley Erena Murray (b. 1931) Hymnal: Hymns of Glory, Songs of Praise #614 (2008) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.6.6 Lyrics: 1 From the waiting comes the sign,
come, Holy Spirit, come;
from the presence comes the peace,
come, Holy Spirit, come;
from the silence comes the song,
come, Holy Spirit, come;
and be to us the truth,
the sign, the peace, the song.
2 In the burning is the fire,
come, Holy Spirit, come;
in the spending is the gift,
come, Holy Spirit, come;
in the breaking is the life,
come, Holy Spirit, come;
and be to us in faith,
the fire, the gift, the life. Topics: The Holy Spirit in the Church Enlivening and Renewing the Church; The Church Celebrates Holy Communion; Holy Communion Scripture: Acts 2:1-4 Languages: English Tune Title: SIGNUM
