Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a105 (1895) Lyrics: 1 Let songs of praises fill the sky:
Christ, our ascended Lord,
Sends down His Spirit from on high,
According to His Word:
All hail the day of Pentecost,
The coming of the Holy Ghost!
2 The Spirit, by His heav’nly breath,
Creates new life within;
He quickens sinners from the death
Of trespasses and sin:
All hail the day of Pentecost,
The coming of the Holy Ghost!
3 The things of Christ the Spirit takes,
And shows them unto men;
The fallen soul His temple makes;
God’s image stamps again:
All hail the day of Pentecost,
The coming of the Holy Ghost!
4 Come, Holy Spirit, from above,
With Thy celestial fire;
Come, and with flames of zeal and love
Our hearts and tongues inspire!
Be this our day of Pentecost,
The coming of the Holy Ghost! Topics: The Church Year Pentecost Languages: English
