The Spirit Came, As Promised

Author: James E. Seddon Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 6 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 First Line: The Spirit came as promised Lyrics: 1 The Spirit came, as promised, in God's appointed hour; and now to each believer he comes in love and power. And by his Holy Spirit, God seals us as his own, and through the Son and Spirit makes access to his throne. 2 The Spirit makes our bodies the temple of the Lord. He binds us all together in faith and true accord. The Spirit in his greatness brings power from God above, and with the Son and Father dwells in our hearts in love. 3 He bids us live together in unity and peace; employ his gifts in blessing, and let base passions cease. We should not grieve the Spirit by open sin or shame, nor let our words and actions deny his holy name. 4 The word, the Spirit's weapon, will bring all sin to light; and prayer, by his directing, will give new joy and might. Be filled then with his Spirit, live out God's will and word; rejoice with hymns and singing, make music to the Lord.

Johannes Gijsbertus Bastiaans

1812 - 1875 Composer of "BEFIEHL DU DEINE WEGE (Bastiaans)" Born near the city of Deventer, Bastiaans had his early musical training there. From 1836 to 1838 he studied organ and composition in Germany. After returning to the Netherlands, Bastiaans served as organist in Deventer and Amsterdam and, from 1858 until his death, was the municipal organist and carillonist in Haarlem. He also taught music at the Institute for the Blind in Amsterdam and gave private lessons in composition and organ. In addition to being an accomplished organist, Bastiaans was well known for his organ compositions. Moreover, he was primarily responsible for introducing J. S. Bach to the Netherlands, both through his Bach recitals and his founding of the Bach Society in Amsterdam. Psalter Hymnal Handbook, 1988
