Lyrics

Refrain
O God, send out your Spirit;
renew the face of the earth.
O God, send out your Spirit;
renew the face of the earth.
1. We bless you, O God,
for you are so great.
Your Spirit uncovers
hidden beauty and grace.
Though times we deny
all the pain and the tears,
your Spirit empowers us
and soon we face our fear.
2. Ev’ry prayer we pray,
sacred word, sacred rite,
is for the ones who are left waiting outside.
Ev’ry sermon we preach,
ev’ry Spirit-filled tune;
Love says, “Remember why we
do the things we do.”
3. Ev’ry time a person reaching out
is turned away by the racist
prejudicial attitudes of hate,
we are called to break the silence,
sanctioning the shame,
stepping across the lines of this
sometimes unholy game.
4. Sources of oppression
that we haven’t really faced;
human inhumanity upon
the human race.
Spirit ever faithful,
Spirit ever true,
rain down all around,
And ev’ry heart renew.
