Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears us up. Alleluia! God is our salvation. Alleluia! [Introit]...
Almighty and ever-living God, You fulfilled Your promise by sending the gift of the Holy Spirit to unite disciples of all nations in the cross and resurrection of Your Son, Jesus Christ. By the preaching of the Gospel spread this gift to the ends of the earth [Collect]...
Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of the faithful and kindle in them the fire of your love. Alleluia [Verse]...
O Source of uncreated light,
The bearer of God's gracious might,
Thrice-holy fount, thrice-holy fire,
Our hearts with heavenly love inspire:
Your sacred, healing message bring
To sanctify us as sing. [Hymn of the Day]
I don't know if it's done in the Lutheran tradition, but you should still get in the sequence!

Gavin,
ReplyDeleteThat sequence is, sadly, not in our current liturgical books. Most of our Pentecost hymnody is based on Maurus'Veni Creator Spiritus.
"That's why you can take all the programs for fixing this or that that's gone wrong with the Church and throw them away. They are utterly worthless."
ReplyDeleteAmen to that!
