Ash Wednesday to Pentecost
Spirit Descended
- Spirit, descended as a dove
To ratify the water's Grace,
Fill my poor heart with thoughts of love
Until there is no empty place. - Spirit, descended as a flame
To spread salvation through The Word,
Ignite me with The Holy Name
That Jesu's message will be heard. - Spirit, descended as a storm
To overturn the towers of sin,
With faith I will not come to harm,
With hope I will be strong within. - Spirit descended into earth,
Bread's nourishment, the Life in wine,
Who never leaves me when I taste
My earthly Saviour yet Divine.
