Filled with the Spirit – v2

Filled with God’s Spirit,
the Companion Christ promised
the flames of Pentecost,
they preached, with power, with passion
in the native tongue of another

Peter stood and spoke, boldly, as they all would,
preaching the truth of the Christ, the Messiah,
killed by Man, the Son sacrificed,
the Lamb God’s offering
as the prophets foretold.

The disciples commissioned on that day
to begin the work we continue,
filled by the one same Spirit
spreading the hope of salvation
by the gift of God, freely given,
available to all
