led by the Spirit’s call
held in his loving hand

love its own reward

Crying out as Isaiah
We stand with Isaiah
father of prophets
knowing his sin
knowing his clay
joining with him
in our humility
falling on our knees
needing our sin to be burned
to be washed clean by fire
standing with him before God
offering ourselves, our lives
in response, desire
to serve, to repay
to offer ourselves to God
“Here I am Lord.
Send Me!” into your world

Ablaze – v2
May the church be ablaze
filled with your fire
the Spirit burning
within each one
Tongues of flame
ribbons alight
descending upon us
to give us new life
Spread your message
in every tongue
with gifts we have been given
to transform the earth
Hope in this mission
sharing God’s love
the story of salvation
in Jesus, the Son

Willing to Go
Are we timid, trembling
do we know our sin
have we come before the Lord
are we ready to live
Isaiah aware
knowing his sin
his unclean lips
burned clean to begin
His response should be ours
ready to serve

Send Me; I’m yours.”

The Musings of God
We don’t know who God spoke to
was this just the musings of God
concern for his creation
for his wayward people somehow
“Who will go, whom shall we send?”
a moment of silent, calling
When Isaiah jumped up
“Here I am. Send Me!”
I will surely go,
Send me Lord, willing
let me share your word.

The beginning of wisdom - 2
Beginning with awareness
that I am but clay
dust of the earth
given life by your breath
Fear of the Lord
Creator of all, eternal
able to move the oceans
by your word, into their place
Light, creation
by His word, power
by His breath, my joy
looking up into His face
The beginning of wisdom
walking in your grace
aware I need you
to save me from myself
Only your power
the depths of your love
lifting me from the dust
called to heaven above

Together with the others
knowing all the players
standing in the gate

somewhere I once tread
Aware of my own choices
a path abandoned
not standing in the breach
words now somehow empty

The state of the universe

the whole earth continuing to change

Groaning as in the pain of childbirth
waiting for the end, the climax
the conclusion of God’s plan
unfolding in God’s time
not by any other hand
the whole earth continuing to change

The words shared
one mind, one accord
focused on Jesus
the sharing of Christ
Joy overflowing
poured from full vessels

power in their lives
Sharing Christ

Not all believed
Just as with the people
those who heard Jesus
the Sanhedrin, the Pharisees
the common people
Those who were gathered
in Jerusalem that day
hearing the message
the witness to Christ
even in their own tongues
some believed but
not all believed
the important thing the gift

all people on the earth

Not a gentle breeze
The flames of Pentecost
rushing from heaven
Not a gentle breeze
wafting through the windows
a storm of heaven
filling the gathering space
the whole house shaking
the church emboldened
by the Spirit’s coming
Their lives forever changed
when the Spirit fell upon them
descending from heaven
life came to them, to us
new, alive, with them forever
their call to bear witness
to the risen Christ, alive
our hope for salvation

All were filled
All of the disciples gathered
joined in our place
the Spirit descending richly
filling this space
All were filled
changed in that day
all filled by the Spirit
all to walk in the Way

Resting on each one
fingers of flame
tongues of fire
falling from heaven
landing on the disciples
resting on each one
filling them with power
the Spirit of God
resting on them physically
changing them forever
filled to be poured
a blessing to the world
