('Fill thou my life, O Lord my God')
Acts 2 v.16-21
************
Peter did explain Joel's words
A prophet he of old
Said, it shall come to pass in last
Days, former days now past
That I will pour out my spirit
On all flesh, lives be lit
Your sons and daughters prophesy
Young men {and women} see visions nigh
And your old men {and women} they shall dream dreams
Revealed by my light's beams
On my servants and my handmaids
My Spirit too displayed
For they shall prophesy, and I
Will show in earth and sky
Wonders in heaven, signs below
To Earth blood, fire, smoke shown
The sun shall be turned to darkness
The moon to blood no less
Before that great and notable
Day of the Lord to all
And it shall come to pass, that who
Shall call on the name true
Of the Lord shall be saved and they
Safe be in judgement day

- Comment from author about the poem: A hymn-poem in 8.6.8.6. Part of Peter's 'sermon' at Pentecost, though in the church year we're just coming up to Epiphany now.
