Pentecost Sunday – Easter Cycle C

22 May 2010

And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit

A PENTECOST SEQUENCE

Come, oh Holy Spirit, come!

And make our timid hearts your own.

In Juarez, blow your mighty wind.

In Haiti, Spirit, enter in.

In war zones here and far away

Let your healing love hold sway.

Change our hearts, our hates, our lives.

Touch the place where meanness thrives.

Come, oh Spirit, open wide

The doors we like to hide behind.

The wounds we hold, the hurts we feed―

Help us, Spirit, to be freed.

And on this Feast Day, give us light

To feel His presence in the night.

Our sadness gone, our faith restored

Proclaims that Jesus Christ is Lord.

Can you remember a time when the Spirit let you see that God was near?
