it is this fire


it is this fire
the Holy Spirit within us
the flames of Pentecost
that burn ever still
it is this fire
that emboldens
that quickens the spirits
that leads us to serve
to go out renewed
filled to overflowing
with God’s mercy, God’s love
it is this fire
the fire deep within us
that shares the Good News
Christ’s gospel message
that heals the whole world
