https://peertube.fourangrydachshunds.nohost.me/videos/watch/ba97e646-a824-482a-923f-a3e89519286f "One Spirit, One Church" by Kevin Keil and Maryanne Quinlivan is a beautiful Pentecost hymn, weaving together an original refrain — "We are a pilgrim people, we are the Church of God, a family of believers, disciples of the Lord, united in one spirit, ignited by the fire" — with verses drawn from the ancient Veni, Creator Spiritus chant. This Pentecost Sunday, the Church gives us the great wind and fire of Acts 2:1–11, the one-body theology of 1 Corinthians 12:3b–7, 12–13 — "in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body" — and the Gospel of John 20:19–23, in which the Risen Jesus breathes on His disciples and says: "Receive the Holy Spirit." This hymn is the living musical expression of all three readings: the fire descending, the Church becoming one, and the Spirit sent — making it the perfect song for Pentecost, Confirmation, and RCIA. Recorded live by the Sunday 7pm Choir at SFDS Parish, Ajax ON Canada.
