Lord, open heaven, please come tear
That curtain, Spirit pour;
Send Noah’s Dove to all us here,
As Father we adore.
Come, make us one with your One Son;
We’re baptized in His Blood.
That Blood with Spirit’s waters one;
We’re plunged beneath that flood.
Wash all of us o’re this good earth
With all Your Spirit’s gifts;
May earth now know your joy, new birth,
As sin from Eden lifts.
We cling to you, your passion share,
You die on Cross within.
On our old bodies your marks bare;
they make us free from sin.
We lay with you in your dark grave,
Now wrapped in swaddling clothes.
We rise with you, from our sin saved–
We bloom like Sharon’s Rose.
Now, grafted into your True Vine,
Your Body here below.
Through us to earth flows Blood-Red Wine–
Now all salvation know.
Then like Elijah we all ride
On chariot we’re driv’n,
With Mary, meet at Jesus’ side,
Ride Spirit’s Ark to heav’n.
PROCLAIMING TRUTH!
