221 - A Descida do Espírito Santo

Gathered they were
The disciples of the Lord
With fervor they awaited
From God, the Comforter

Behold, a sound suddenly
Echo was heard from heaven
Like a strong wind
It was the Spirit of God

Tongues, like fire, they saw
Upon themselves then rest
They were distributed among them
Making them praise God

In different languages
They began to manifest
The excellent greatness
That God the Father made them experience

The promise is made to many
As many as God, our Father, calls
With fervor, all His Saints
Must seek His gifts

If men, to their children
Know how to offer good things
Much more the blessed Father
To those who ask, can give
