We are Your Shadow


We are Your shadow, O Lord
   Led by the Pillar of Cloud
That leads Your people through desert country;
A passing shadow are we.

Bright and happy and free,
Free in Your loving care.
Bright and happy are we,
The Bread of Life we all share.

We are Your breeze, O Lord,
A cooling breeze, indeed;
The wind is the Wind of Your Spirit, Lord.
A puff of wind are we.

Bright and happy and free,
Free in Your lasting love
Bright and happy are we,
O lead us, Holy Dove.

Note: Today is Pentecost Sunday, the day we celebrate the coming of the Holy Spirit to the Church.  The Holy Spirit brings us comfort, counsel, and strength to go on living as Christians.  We often neglect the promptings of the Holy Spirit, and try to figure things out ourselves.  However, we come to the realization that we need the Holy Spirit in order to grow in our faith in Christ.  "'Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit,' says the Lord of Hosts."  Zechariah 4:6
