about
Pentecost Songs: A collection of songs and hymns written to celebrate the person and work of the Holy Spirit composed at various points between the 9th century and the 21st.
Pentecost, which means 'fifty' signifies the 50 days between the resurrection of Jesus and the day that the Holy Spirit descended on the disciples and established the church.
Our initial aim was to collect 50 songs to celebrate each day but that seemed maybe a bit over ambitious...so we settled for getting almost half way there! These songs represent over 1000 years of text relating to the Holy Spirit at work in the church. From the Latin chant of Veni Creator Spiritus re-imagined by Greg Scheer to a recent exploration by Wendell Kimbrough this is an insanely fruitful toast to the Spirit singing in our midst.

We are giving this album away as a free download, but we ask that you PLEASE give a small donation to World Relief based in Durham, NC. They provide incredible support to refugees both here and abroad.

Come, Holy Spirit, come;
Let thy bright beams arise;
Dispel the darkness from our minds,
And open all our eyes.
Convince us of our sin,
Then lead to Jesus’ blood;
And to our wondering view reveal
The secret love of God.
'Tis thine to cleanse the heart,
to purify the soul,
to pour fresh life in every part
and new create the whole.
Dwell, therefore, in our hearts;
Our minds from bondage free;
Then we shall know, and praise, and love
The Father, Son, and Thee. - Track Name: Nathan Partain - Come, Holy Spirit, God and Lord

Refrain:
women: A—lle—luia
men: Alleluia
women: A—lle—luia
Come, Holy Spirit, God and Lord!
Let all your graces be outpoured
On each believer’s mind and heart,
Your fervent love to us impart.
Lord, by the brightness of your light,
You in the faith do men unite
Of every land and every tongue;
This to your praise, O Lord, be sung.
Refrain:
From every error keep us free;
Let none but Christ our Master be,
That we in living faith abide In him,
with all our might confide.
Lord, by your pow’r prepare each heart
And to the weakness strength impart,
That bravely here we may contend Through life,
and death to you ascend.

1 Away with our fears,
Our troubles and tears!
The Spirit is come,
The witness of Jesus returned to his home:
The pledge of our Lord
To his heaven restored,
Is sent from the sky,
And tells us our head is exalted on high.
2 Our Advocate there
By his blood and his prayer
The gift hath obtained,
For us he hath prayed, and the Comforter gained:
Our glorified head
His Spirit hath shed
With his people to stay,
And never again will he take him away.
3 Our heavenly guide
With us shall abide;
His comforts31 impart,
And set up his kingdom of LOVE in the heart:
The heart that believes
His kingdom receives,
His power and his peace,
His life, and his joy’s everlasting increase.
4 The presence divine
Doth inwardly shine,
The Shechinah rests
On all our assemblies, and glows in our breasts.
By day and by night
The pillar of light
Our steps shall attend,
And convoy us safe to our prosperous end.
5 Then let us rejoice
In heart and in voice,
Our leader pursue,
And shout as we travel the wilderness through;
With the Spirit remove
To Sion above,
Triumphant arise
And walk in our God, ’till we fly to the skies. - Track Name: Brian T Murphy - Did I Not Plead Above
-
Did I not plead above
for us, your dying love
never could we hope for your aid
never on your spirit call
but you have the father prayed -
but you have recieved the gift for all -
and if I go away
by faith we hear you say
I the comforter will send (2x)
- comfort for you who grieve
amen our hearts reply
uplifted to the sky
longing to be in your home
a peaceful eternity
but you have the father prayed -
you have received the gift for all -
and if I go away
by faith I hear you say
I the comforter will send (2x)
- comfort for you who grieve
-ever in your hearts to live - - Track Name: Melanie Penn & Steve Elliot - Holy Ghost
-
Why should the children of a King
Go mourning all their days
Oh comforter, descend and bring on us
A token of your grace
Holy Ghost, by Him bestowed
Who suffered on a tree
Take of my Redeemer's blood
Show it unto me
Don't you dwell in all the saints
And seal our hearts as heirs of heaven?
Won't you banish my complaints and show me
All my sins forgiven?
Witness with the blood You are
And apply it to this soul mine
Now assure my sprinkled heart it is
The blood of Him divine

Poor helpless orphans we
Awhile Thine absence mourn,
But we Thy face again shall see,
For Thou will soon return,
For Thou will soon return.
Because Thou liv’st above
Let us Thy Spirit know,
And in the glorious knowledge prove
Eternal life below,
Eternal life below.
Hasten the day when we
Shall surely know and feel
Thou art in God and God in Thee,
And thou in us dost dwell
And thou in us dost dwell. - Track Name: Karl Digerness (City Hymns) - Spirit of God
-
Spirit of God, descend upon my heart,
Wean it from earth, through all its pulses move;
Stoop to my weakness, mighty as Thou art,
And make me love Thee as I ought to love.
I ask no dream, no prophet-ecstasies;
No sudden rending of the veil of clay;
No angel vision, no opening skies;
But take the dimness of my soul away.
Teach me to feel that Thou art always nigh;
Teach me the struggles of the soul to bear,
To check the rising doubt, the rebel sigh;
Teach me the patience of unanswered prayer.
Hast Thou not bid us love Thee, God and King?
All Thine own, soul, heart and strength and mind;
I see thy cross there teach me to cling;
O let me seek Thee, and O let me find.
Teach me to love Thee as Thine angels love,
One holy passion filling all my frame:
The presence of Thy descended Dove,
My heart an altar, and Thy love the flame. - Track Name: Michael Van Patter - Breathe on Me
-
1 Breathe on me, Breath of God,
fill me with life anew,
that I may love what thou dost love,
and do what thou wouldst do.
2 Breathe on me, Breath of God,
until my heart is pure,
until my will is one with thine,
to do and to endure.
3 Breathe on me, Breath of God,
till I am wholly thine,
until this earthly part of me
glows with thy fire divine.
4 Breathe on me, Breath of God,
so shall I never die,
but live with thee the perfect life
of thine eternity. - Track Name: Anne-Marie Strohman - Holy Spirit, Light Divine
-
1 Holy Spirit, Light divine,
Shine upon this heart of mine;
Chase the shades of night away,
Turn my darkness into day.
Refrain:
Come Holy Spirit, Come Heavenly Dove
Shine down upon me in your love
2 Holy Spirit, Power divine
Cleanse this guilty heart of mine;
Long hath sin without control
Held dominion o'er my soul.
3 Holy Spirit, all divine,
Dwell within this heart of mine;
Cast down every idol throne,
Reign supreme, and reign alone. - Track Name: Liz Janes - Come, Holy Spirit, Come
-
Come, Holy Spirit, come,
With energy divine,
And on this poor, benighted soul
With beams of mercy shine.
O melt this frozen heart;
This stubborn will subdue;
Each evil passion overcome,
And form me all anew!
The profit will be mine,
But Thine shall be the praise;
And unto Thee will I devote
The remnant of my days. - Track Name: Cameron Gray - Breathe on Me

Great Comforter! descend and bring
Some tokens of thy grace
Dost thou not dwell in all the saints,
And seal the heirs of heav'n?
When wilt thou banish my complaints,
And show my sins forgiv'n?
Assure my conscience of her part
In the Redeemer's blood
And bear thy witness with my heart,
That I am born of God.

The pledge of joys to come;
And thy soft wings, celestial Dove,
Will safe convey me home. - Track Name: Jered McKenna - Jesus, We on the Word Depend

Now, Lord, in us, ev’n us fulfil,
And give the Spirit of thy grace,
To teach us all thy perfect will.

That guide infallible impart,
To bring thy sayings to our mind,
And write them on our faithful heart.

Through which we endless life possess,
And deal to each his legacy,
His Lord’s unutterable peace.

O might he now to us bring in,
And fill our souls with power divine,
And make an end of fear and sin.

Look on Him we pierced, and grieve;

Chorus - Track Name: Wendell Kimbrough - Holy Spirit, Come
-
1. When your people were bound in oppression
And your children were slaves in the land,
When they cried to their Father in anguish,
You came with salvation in hand
2. In The pillar of clouds you led them
Through a wasteland of desert by night.
When your children cried out in their hunger
You opened the sky to give life.
Chorus:
Holy Spirit, Holy Spirit
Will You come and deliver again
Holy Spirit, Holy Spirit,
Will You come and give life again
3. When the prophets of Baal Gathered round him
And Elijah Called to you alone,
You did not leave him helpless to wonder;
You Sent Sire To make yourself known.
4. In The dark of the tomb he was buried
A Savior whose followers fled
But their sin and their doubt could not speak a sound
As Loud as His Triumph over death!
5. Age to age you have answered your people
With awesome displays of your might
Now we call on the same Holy Spirit
Give power to be salt and light
(c)2009. Wendell Kimbrough| churchmusicblog.wordpress.com
