(He wrote one as a dedication for the Confirmation of each of his three sons). This is the first of three songs in this list that are from the Mike Stanley album Dewfall. Holy Spirit We Have Come (Veni Sancte Spiritus) – Mike Stanley The refrain could be used on its own as a prayer response or acclamation.Ħ. In this setting, the many verses are broken up with a simple refrain to give a point of immediate accessibility for the whole congregation. The text is traditionally attributed to Innocent III (1160-1216) and translated from Latin to English by Edward Caswall. This is a wonderful, stirring setting of the Pentecost Sequence (which occurs after the second reading in the Liturgy of the Word for Pentecost). Holy Spirit, Lord of Light (Pentecost Sequence) – Mike Stanley Recorded on the album How Can We Keep From Singing? Vol. It is perhaps a little low in the voice in the published key of D major – worth trying in E major. The words are a prayer for the action of the Holy Spirit to be seen in our lives in word and in deed.

Holy Spirit, Living Breath of God – Keith Getty Sheet music and mp3 is available from Available on iTunesĤ. LISTEN: Holy Spirit Come into our Lives (audio sample) A soloist sings the verses over the refrain, sort of Taizé-style, but with more groove.

Sheet music and backing track is available on We Will Go Out CD-Rom Dan and Emily have been sharing this song in their Confirmation preparation retreats far and wide, and it is becoming a firm favourite. But the refrain and fourth verse bring a clear Holy Spirit focus. The first 3 verses give it something of a Trinitarian flavour. This is song from the EP We Will Go Out, by our friends at One Life Music. Come Holy Spirit – Dan Callow & Emily Clark We hope these 11 contemporary ‘Songs of the Spirit’ can help to nurture and express our longing for a new Pentecost, in this our day: 1. It’s often referred to as the birthday of the church… That day when a group of timid disciples hiding-out in an upper room, poured onto the streets with hearts ablaze, no longer able to stay silent about the Good News of the gospel.
