God's Holy Spirit Came
Author: Michael Denham; Mary Jackson Cathey Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Proclamation/Testimony Lyrics: 1 God's Holy Spirit came with rushing wind and fire,
Christ's presence here to comfort, bless, and to inspire.
The Spirit thus began God's holy work on earth
at Pentecost, a gift that gave the church its birth.
2 God sent the Spirit forth, fulfilling prophets' word,
to those who followed Jesus and who called him Lord.
Disciples gathered near the temple courts in prayer.
The Spirit blew and rested on those clustered there.
3 God's Spirit filled each one as Jesus had foretold.
In many tongues they spoke God's word, renewed and bold.
"Repent and be baptized," preached Peter in that hour,
and thousands came believing by the Spirit's power.
4 God's church alive today continues to proclaim
salvation by the Spirit's power in Jesus' name.
Let all believers now their tongues and lives employ.
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost: our highest joy! Scripture: Acts 2:38 Used With Tune: LEONI
God's Holy Spirit Came
How Shall They Hear?
Author: Michael Perry Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.8 Appears in 15 hymnals Topics: Proclamation First Line: How shall they hear the word of God Lyrics: 1 How shall they hear the word of God
unless the truth is told?
How shall the sinful be set free,
the sorrowful consoled?
To all who speak the truth today,
impart your Spirit, Lord, we pray.
2 How shall they call to God for help
unless they have believed?
How shall the poor be given hope,
the prisoner reprieved?
To those who help the blind to see,
give light and love and clarity.
3 How shall the gospel be proclaimed
that sinners may repent?
How shall the world find peace at last
if heralds are not sent?
So send us, Lord, for we rejoice
to speak of Christ with life and voice.

Joyful Is the Dark
Author: Brian Wren Meter: 10.10.11.10 Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: The Church at Worship Proclamation of the Gospel; God's Church The Church at Worship: Proclamation of the Gospel First Line: Joyful is the dark, holy, hidden God Lyrics: 1 Joyful is the dark, holy, hidden God,
rolling cloud of night beyond all naming:
majesty in darkness, Energy of love,
Word-in-flesh, the mystery proclaiming.
2 Joyful is the dark, Spirit of the deep,
winging wildly o'er the world's creation,
silken sheen of midnight, plumage black and bright,
swooping with the beauty of a raven.
3 Joyful is the dark, shadowed stable floor;
angels flicker, God on earth confessing,
as with exultation, Mary, giving birth,
hails the infant cry of need and blessing.
4 Joyful is the dark, coolness of the tomb,
waiting for the wonder of the morning;
never was that midnight touched by dread and gloom:
darkness was the cradle of the dawning.
5 Joyful is the dark, depth of love divine,
roaring, looming thundercloud of glory;
holy, haunting beauty, living, loving God.
Hallelujah! Sing and tell the story!
Joyful is the dark,
joyful is the dark,
joyful is the dark. Used With Tune: ORANGETHORPE
Joyful Is the Dark

and publish abroad that wonderful name:
the name all-victorious of Jesus extol;
who, sovereign and glorious, now rules over all.

and yet remains nigh: God's presence we have.

ascribing salvation to Jesus always.

Let all cry aloud for what God has done.
The praises of Jesus the angels proclaim;
still veiling their faces, they worship the Lamb.
4 Then let us adore and render God's right,
all glory and power, all wisdom and might,
all honor and blessing with angels above,
and thanks never-ceasing, and infinite love. Scripture: Revelation 7:9-12 Used With Tune: HANOVER
