How Great Is Our God

Canon S45

"When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. And suddenly out of the sky came a sound like a strong rushing wind and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. There appeared tongues as if of fire which parted and came to rest upon each one of them. All were filled with Holy Spirit and began to speak other languages, as the Spirit enabled them to speak.

"Staying in Jerusalem were religious Jews from every nation under heaven. When they heard this sound, a crowd gathered, all excited because each heard them speaking in his own language. Beside themselves with amazement and wonder, they said, 'Are not all these who are speaking Galileans? How is it that we hear them in our own native language? Here are Parthians, Medes and Elamites and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia. Phryglia, Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya belonging to Cyrene, and visitors from Rome, both Jews and foreigners who accept Jewish beliefs. Cretians and Arabians; and all of us hear them proclaiming in our own language what God, the Savior, does."

ACTS 2:1-11

"Thank You, Lord, that I can speak and sing to You. Amen."
