O God, move through this room. Breathe into us your hopes and dreams for a world filled with justice, love and peace. Unlock a song within your people that we might sing your praises and sing about your generous love and grace. Breathe your Holy Spirit afresh in us not only this morning, but every morning. For this we ask in Jesus name. Amen.

thy will be done on earth
as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
and forgive us our trespasses,

As we forgive those
who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
and the power,
and the glory, forever.
Amen.

539
WORDS: Henry H. Tweedy, 1935 (Acts 2)
1. O Spirit of the living God, thou light and fire divine,

42. descend upon thy church once more, and make it truly thine.

43. Fill it with love and joy and power, with righteousness and peace;

44. shall dwell in human hearts, and sin and sorrow cease.
till Christ
shall dwell in human hearts, and sin and sorrow cease.

45. O Spirit of the Living God (Verse 2)
2. Blow, wind
of God! With wisdom blow until our minds are free

46. from mists of error, clouds of doubt, which blind our eyes to thee.

47. Burn, winged fire! Inspire our lips with flaming love and zeal,

48. to preach to all thy great good news, God’s glorious commonweal.

49. O Spirit of the Living God (Verse 3)
3. Teach us to utter living words of truth which all may hear,

50. the language all may understand when love speaks loud and clear;

51. till every age and race and clime shall blend their creeds in one,

52. form one family by whom thy will is done.
and earth shall
form one family by whom thy will is done.

53. O Spirit of the Living God (Verse 4)
4. So shall we know the power
of Christ who came this world to save;

54. so shall we rise with him to life which soars beyond the grave;

55. and earth shall win true holiness, which makes thy children whole;

56. till, perfected by thee, we reach creation’s glorious goal!

57. Scripture Reading; Luke 23:50-53
Now there was a good and righteous man named Joseph, who, though a member of the council, 51 had not agreed to their plan and action. He came from the Jewish town of Arimathea, and he was waiting expectantly for the kingdom of God. 52 This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. 53 Then he took it down, wrapped it in a linen cloth, and laid it in a rock-hewn tomb where no one had ever been laid.
