- Acts 2: 1-4, 11: When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.

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… “we hear them speaking in our own tongues the wonderful works of God”

- John 16: 23-28: (Jesus said) “In that day you will ask Me nothing. Most assuredly, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in My name He will give you. Until now you have asked nothing in My name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full. “These things I have spoken to you in figurative language; but the time is coming when I will no longer speak to you in figurative language, but I will tell you plainly about the Father. In that day you will ask in My name, and I do not say to you that I shall pray the Father for you; for the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved Me, and have believed that I came forth from God. I came forth from the Father and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world and go to the Father.”

All: Restless is the heart until it comes to rest in you. All the earth, all the earth shall remember and return to our God. S: Lord, you have been our refuge through all time, from one generation to the next; before the mountains were born, or the earth brought forth, you are God without beginning or end. A: Restless is the heart until it comes to rest in you. All the earth, all the earth shall remember and return to our God. S: To your eyes a thousand years are like a day, no more than a watch in the night. You sweep us away like a dream, like the grass that springs green in the morning, but faded by night. A: Restless is the heart until it comes to rest in you. All the earth, all the earth shall remember and return to our God. S: Make us know our life’s shortness that we may gain true wisdom of heart. In the morning fill us with your love. A: Restless is the heart until it comes to rest in you. All the earth, all the earth shall remember and return to our God.
