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!
The Spirit by His heavenly 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!
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!
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!
---Alternative verses---
The Spirit by His heavenly breath
New life creates within;
He quickens sinners from the death
Of trespasses and sin.
|: All hail the day of Pentecost, :|
The coming of the Holy Ghost!
