Acts 2:2

• [Act 2:2] Above The Starry Spheres

  Above the starry spheres, To where He was before, Christ had gone up, the Father’s gift Upon the Church to pour. At length had fully come, On mystic circle borne Of seven times seven revolving days, The Pentecostal morn. When, as the Apostles knelt At the third hour in prayer, A sudden rushing sound proclaimed That God Himself was there. Forthwith a tongue of fire Is seen on every brow, Each heart receives the Father’s light, The Word’s enkindling glow. The Holy Ghost on all Is mightily outpoured, Who straight in divers tongues declare The wonders of the Lord. While strangers of all climes Flock round from far and near, And their own tongue, wherever born, All with amazement hear. But Judah, faithless still, Denies the hand divine; And, mocking, jeers the saints of Christ As full of new made wine. Till Peter, in the midst, By Joel’s ancient word, Rebukes their unbelief, and wins Three thousand to the Lord. The Father and the Son And Spirit we adore, O may the Spirit’s gifts be poured On us forevermore.

• [Act 2:2] Come Down, O Love Divine

  Come down, O love divine, seek Thou this soul of mine, And visit it with Thine own ardor glowing. O Comforter, draw near, within my heart appear, And kindle it, Thy holy flame bestowing. O let it freely burn, til earthly passions turn To dust and ashes in its heat consuming; And let Thy glorious light shine ever on my sight, And clothe me round, the while my path illuming. Let holy charity mine outward vesture be, And lowliness become mine inner clothing; True lowliness of heart, which takes the humbler part, And o’er its own shortcomings weeps with loathing. And so the yearning strong, with which the soul will long, Shall far outpass the power of human telling; For none can guess its grace, till he become the place Wherein the Holy Spirit makes His dwelling.

  Come, O Spirit, with Your sound Like a wind, quick rushing; Come from heaven and stir our hearts, Each disciple touching! Mold our actions to Your will, You our service giving; Move within our fellowship, Transform now our living! Come, O Spirit, with Your flame, Leaping tongues of fire; Come, and with Your glorious light All our thoughts inspire! Rest upon each servant’s head Till each one is speaking Of our Christ, the Holy One All the earth is seeking. Come, O Spirit, fill Your church, Making strong our mission; Fill Your daughters and your sons With a mighty vision, Till the great and glorious day When the whole creation Sings Your praise as Lord and King, Giver of salvation!

• [Act 2:2] I’m Glad I’m One Of Them

  There are people almost everywhere Whose hearts are all aflame With the fire that fell at Pentecost, Which made them all acclaim; It is burning now within my heart— All glory to His Name!— And I’m glad that I can say I’m one of them. Refrain One of them (one of them), one of them (one of them), I am glad that I can say I’m one of them; One of them (one of them), one of them (one of them), I am glad that I can say I’m one of them. Though the people may not learnèd be, Nor boast of worldly fame, They have all received their Pentecost, Through faith in Jesus’ Name; And are telling now, both far and wide, His power is yet the same, And I’m glad that I can say I’m one of them. Refrain They were gathered in the upper room, All praying in His Name, They were baptized in the Holy Ghost, And power for service came; Now what He did for them that day He’ll do for you the same, And I’m glad that I can say I’m one of them. Refrain Come, my brother seek this blessing That will cleanse your heart from sin, That will start the joy bells ringing And will keep the soul aflame; It is burning now within my heart— All glory to His Name!— And I’m glad that I can say I’m one of them. Refrain

  O heavenly Fount of light and love, Adoring praise to Thee we pay; Pour down, blest Spirit, from above Fresh streams of grace this day. Thou, o’er the everlasting Son Hovering with wings of living light Anointed Israel’s Champion To fight the awful fight. At Pentecost Thou camest down As sound of rushing wind went by, With tongues of heavenly fire to crown That glorious company.

Thou in each meek and lowly heart, With streams of living waters bright, Sweet Fount of strength and gladness art, Fresh Spring of life and light. Thee, Spirit blest, All-Holy One, In songs of triumph we adore, For, with the Father and the Son, Thou reignest evermore.

  Spirit divine, attend our prayer, And make our heart Thy home; Descend with all Thy gracious power; Come, Holy Spirit, come. Come as the light! to us reveal The truth we long to know; Reveal the narrow path of right, The way of duty show. Come as the fire and purge our hearts Like sacrificial flame, Till our whole souls an offering be In love’s redeeming name. Come as the dew, and sweetly bless This consecrated hour; May barrenness rejoice to own Thy fertilizing power. Come as the dove, and spread Thy wings, The wings of peaceful love; And let Thy Church on earth become Blest as Thy Church above. Come as the wind, O Breath of God! O Pentecostal grace! Come, make Thy great salvation known, Wide as the human race. Spirit divine, attend our prayer; Make a lost world Thy home; Descend with all thy gracious powers, O come, great Spirit, come.

• [Act 2:2] When God Of Old Came Down From Heav’n

  When God of old came down from Heav’n, In power and wrath He came; Before His feet the clouds were riven, Half darkness and half flame: But when He came the second time, He came in power and love; Softer than gale at morning prime Hovered His holy Dove. The fires, that rushed on Sinai down In sudden torrents dread, Now gently light, a glorious crown, On every sainted head. And as on Israel’s awestruck ear The voice exceeding loud, The trump that angels quake to hear, Thrilled from the deep, dark cloud; So, when the Spirit of our God Came down His flock to find, A voice from Heav’n was heard abroad, A rushing, mighty wind. It fills the Church of God; it fills The sinful world around; Only in stubborn hearts and wills No place for it is found. Come Lord, come Wisdom, Love and Power, Open our ears to hear; Let us not miss the accepted hour; Save, Lord, by love or fear.
