Pentecost Counterpoint 2
| O when the saints go marching in / She'll be coming round the mountain when she comes |
O Spirit come and spread your fire,
O Spirit come and spread your fire,
God’s breath of life brings energy and freedom:
O Spirit come and spread your fire!
God is pouring out his life on you and me,
God is pouring out his life on you and me,
God is pouring out his life, pouring out his life,
Pouring out his life on you and me!
To be sung together!

Pentecost Counterpoint
| Tunes: It's a long way to Tipperary / Pack up your troubles |
Heav'nly Father, send your Spirit
In the name of your Son.
Heav'nly Father, send your Spirit,
Hold diversity as one!
Make us holy people,
Filled with love for all.
Heav’nly Father, send your Holy Spirit:
We answer your call!
Spirit whose breath brings life, receive our prayer:
Come, Fire, Fire, Fire!
Spirit whose breath brings life, receive our prayer –
You’re all we require.
Touch our world with energy
That we may never tire.
Oh! Spirit whose breath brings life, receive our prayer:
Come Fire, Fire, Fire!
To be sung together – AT THE SAME TIME!
(thus proving the Spirit's life
of harmony and integration)
