The flames of Pentecost, the tongues of fire
burning brighter and brighter
a bonfire, a brushfire, disciples, lay people
witnessing to Christ’s name, his holy name
The spirit filling them, their hearts, lives with courage
their mouths with power, with authority
able, with Christ, with the Spirit, able
to change the world, to bring hope where there was fear
to bring healing where there was hurt
bringing light into a dark world
by his holy name able, burning bright
