Pentecost

Come Holy Spirit.  Come Spirit of God.  Wind, Fire, Praise, pour into us, create into us, new life today.

Come Holy Spirit. Come Spirit of God. Breathe into us your gifts, shining in every person that we meet today.

Come Holy Spirit.  Come Spirit of God.  Give old people young visions, give young people old wisdom, and give both the fire and the desire to make their dreams come true.

Come Holy Spirit.  Come Spirit of God.  Send a strong rushing wind into the upper rooms of our minds, replacing stale, paralyzing fear with fresh, ongoing peace.

Come Holy Spirit.  Come Spirit of God.   Help us to stop talking long enough to hear, that we’re really not listening to each other, but speaking in the language of babbling that divides us.

Come Holy Spirit.  Come Spirit of God.  Give us the gift of tongues, give us the ability of speaking in the language of love that unites us.

Come Holy Spirit.  Come Spirit of God.  Help us all to work together to build the City of God, with Jesus as the Tower and the Ladder, that touches the sky and takes us into the Kingdom.
