Spreading Among the People

Those tongues of fire, on Pentecost born
flames growing, spreading
spreading among the people

The power of Jesus’ name
Spirit-filled believers
refusing to be silenced

Proclaiming the power, the authority
of His holy name
The one who had been foretold

The Messiah of the people,
who suffered and died,
who rose and ascended

Dwelling within us, the spirit filling
emboldening us to witness
to proclaim the good news
