Baptism of the Holy Spirit

Would that each of us
would feel the power, that epiphany
that moment with flames
on that day of Pentecost
But with fire or with water,
the flame burns brightly
deep within
for those who believe,
and put their feet to their faith
and act as they proclaim
serving their neighbor
sharing the good news of grace
to a world in need of grace
