The Mighty Wind of God
You came as
wind, the Church was born,
Your
Spirit stirred the early morn.
With
Word revealed and truth made clear,
The blind could see, the deaf could
hear.
Through ages fierce, Your
breath revived,
Movements rose and
faith survived.
Fresh winds blew
where darkness lay,
And light broke
through to show the way.
Yet
counterfeit winds seek to deceive,
To
twist the truth and make us grieve.
But anchored firm in Scripture’s voice,
We test the winds and make wise choice.
You breathe on bones, they rise and
stand,
A mighty army by Your hand.
Your glory shines, the Church ignites,
A beacon blazing through the nights.
The Spirit flows, the nations wake,
The veil is torn, the chains all break.
The fullness comes, the Bride is
dressed,
In holy awe, the saints are
blessed.
Come, Lord Jesus, split
the skies,
With trumpet sound the
dead arise.
Your wind will blow, Your
Church will soar—
In glory, wonder,
evermore.
When
the Day of Pentecost had fully come,
they were all with one accord in one
place. And suddenly there came a
sound from heaven, as of a rushing
mighty wind, and it filled the whole
house where they were sitting. Then
there appeared to them divided
tongues, as of fire, and one sat
upon each of them. And they were all
filled with the Holy Spirit and
began to speak with other tongues,
as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Acts
2:1-4

Review of
Ken's Book
Ken Birks has written a
masterpiece of superb continuity. The majestic flow from
Poem to Poem contains powerful revelation that
delights the heart. I was amazed at how the poems were Davidic and musical – They flowed like a
delightful streams with heavenly impartations.
