Let Songs of Praises Fill the Sky

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 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!

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!
