This is another worthy song from the As One Voice Digital archive that isn’t in one of their collections. This song for Pentecost is by Amanda McKenna and Dave Brebner. It is quite singable with some gentle syncopation.
The sheet music can be purchased at As One Voice. You can hear Amanda McKenna sing it on Soundcloud.
1 You are the Spirit on the waters, you are the answer to our thirst.
You are the gentle rains upon the fields, the waters of new birth.
The rhythm of the ocean, the quiet sigh of the breeze.
The fire burning within our hearts to lift our voices up in praise.
Chorus
Holy Spirit come, Holy Spirit come, Holy Spirit come to us now.
Holy Spirit come, Holy Spirit come, Holy Spirit come to us now.
2 You are the heart of our compassion, you are the author of our days.
You are the voice crying in the wilderness, “Prepare ye the way.”
The warm hand on my shoulder, the courage to keep moving on.
The light that shines in the darkest hour, the hope when all our strength is gone.
Chorus
