All together in one place
1 All together in one place
friends of Jesus met to pray;
waiting as the Lord had said
for the Pentecostal day.
2 All together with one power
poured out when the Spirit came;
touching each and filling all,
rushing wind and burning flame.
3 All together with one voice,
praising God in every tongue;
languages they never learned,
telling what the Lord had done.
4 All together with one aim:
bearing witness to their Lord;
sharing faith by word and deed,
preaching Christ, the living Word.
5 All together still today,
though two thousand years have gone.
Still the Spirit's power is given,
still God's people meet as one;
6 One in mission, one in faith,
still responding to God's call:
one in telling all the world
Jesus Christ is Lord of all!
