FEAST OF PENTECOST
PENTECOST LITANY
Come Holy Spirit.
Come Spirit of God.
Wind, Fire, Praise,
pour into us
surprise into us,
create into us new life today.
Come Holy Spirit.
Come Spirit of God.
Breathe into us your gifts,
especially the ability of seeing your gifts,
shining in every person that we meet today.
Come Holy Spirit.
Come Spirit of God.
Give old people young visions,
give young people old wisdom,
and give both the fire and the desire
to make their dreams come true.
Come Holy Spirit.
Come Spirit of God.
Send a strong rushing wind
into the upper rooms of our minds,
replacing stale, paralyzing fear
with fresh, ongoing peace.
Come Holy Spirit.
Come Spirit of God.
Help us to stop talking
long enough to hear,
that we’re really not listening
to each
other,
but we're speaking in the language
of babbling that divides us.
Come Holy Spirit.
Come Spirit of God.
Give us the gift of tongues,
give us the ability of speaking
in the language of love that unites us
Come Holy Spirit.
Come Spirit of God.
Help us to all work together
to build the City of God ,
with Jesus as the Tower
and the Ladder that touches the sky
and takes us into the Kingdom.
