Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., 1944 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #385 (1997) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6 Scripture: 1 Corinthians 12:1-11 Lyrics: 1 Like the murmur of the dove’s song,
like the challenge of her flight,
like the vigor of the wind’s rush,
like the new flame’s eager might:
come, Holy Spirit, come.
2 To the members of Christ’s body,
to the branches of the Vine,
to the church in faith assembled,
to her midst as gift and sign:
come, Holy Spirit, come.
3 With the healing of division,
with the ceaseless voice of prayer,
with the power to love and witness,
with the peace beyond compare:
come, Holy Spirit, come. Topics: Church Vine and Branches; Church Body of Christ; Dove; Fire / Flame; God the Holy Spirit; Prayer / Prayers / Poems; Unity; Witness / Martyrs Languages: English Tune Title: BRIDEGROOM
