There's a Spirit in the Air

Descant:
Praise the love! Praise the love!
Alleluia! Alleluia!

1.  There's a spirit in the air,
    Telling Christians everywhere:
    "Praise the love that Christ revealed,
    Living, working in our world."

2.  Lose your shyness, find your tongue,
    Tell the world what God has done:
    God in Christ has come to stay.
    Live tomorrow's life today!

3.  When believers break the bread,
    When a hungry child is fed,
    Praise the love that Christ revealed,
    Living, working in our world!

4.  Still the Spirit gives us light,
    Seeing wrong and setting right:
    God in Christ has come to stay.
    Live tomorrow's life today!

5.  When a stranger's not alone,
    Where the homeless find a home;
    Praise the love that Christ revealed,
    Living, working in our world.

6.  May the Spirit fill our praise,
    Guide our thoughts and change our ways.
    God in Christ has come to stay.
    Live tomorrow's life today!

7.  There's a Spirit in the air,
    Calling people everywhere;
    Praise the love that Christ revealed,
    Living, working in our world.
