<div class="lyrics">
<p>Joy! because the circling year<br>
Brings our day of blessings here;<br>
Day when first the light divine<br>
On the Church began to shine.</p>
<p>Like to quivering tongues of flame<br>
Unto each the Spirit came,<br>
Tongues, that earth might hear their call,<br>
Fire, that love might burn in all.</p>
<p>So the wondrous works of God<br>
Wondrously were spread abroad;<br>
Every tribe&#8217;s familiar tone<br>
Made the glorious marvel known.</p>
<p>Hardened scoffers vainly jeered;<br>
Listening strangers heard and feared,<br>
Knew the prophets&#8217; word fulfilled,<br>
Owned the work which God had willed.</p>
<p>Still Thy Spirit&#8217;s fullness, Lord,<br>
On Thy waiting Church be poured;<br>
Grant our burdened hearts release;<br>
Grant us Thine abiding peace.</p>
