Shaking the House

The wind, the Spirit of God
shaking the house, the gathering place
the sanctuary of the church
the place of the faithful, the disciples

Transforming them, together, each one
a prophet, a leader, from the sheep of his fold
the fire within, burning bright
pressing them to share his light

Shaking too, the foundations of the world
for the world would never be the same
the fire, the message, spreading
to all who hunger, to the ends of the earth

A movement, a spreading, the fire still at work
burning in the saints, from age to age
tongues of fire, alive in each heart
opening a way for the flame to leave its mark

“Almighty God, Giver of knowledge and might, we come
before your throne to worship You in Spirit and truth. We
