Feast of Pentecost:
As a Jewish festival, the feast of Pentecost was
celebrated on the 50th day
after the Passover. Its start on the fiftieth day caused it to be called
Pentecost which derives from the Greek
word for fifty. The
Israelite farmer
was expected to dedicate a portion of the first fruits of his grain to the
Lord
as a token of recognition that it is God who protects the crops. So the
church
used this Jewish Festival of Pentecost to celebrate the first fruits, a new
harvesting of souls.

Chorus
Richer than
gold is the love of my Lord.
Better than splendour and
wealth.
God’s Spirit is in my Heart
God’s Spirit is
in my heart He has called me and set me apart.
This is what I
have to do, what I have to do
He sent me to give the Good News to the poor
Tell prisoners that they are prisoners no more
Tell blind people that they can see
And set the down trodden free
And go tell everyone the news that the
Kingdom of God has come
And go tell everyone
The news That God’s Kingdom has come.
Just as the
Father sent me So I’m sending you
out
to be,
My witnesses
throughout the world, the whole of
the
world

Melt me, mould me, fill me, use me.
Spirit of the living God fall afresh on
me
