Refrain:
Send down the fire of your justice,Call us to be your compassion,
Send down the rains of your love;
Come, send down the Spirit, breathe life in your people,
and we shall be people of God.
Teach us the song of your love;
Give us hearts that sing,
Give us deeds that ring,
Make us ring with the song of your love. (Refrain)
Call us to learn of your mercy,
Teach us the way of your peace;
Give us hearts that feel,
Give us hands that heal,
Make us walk in the way of your peace. (Refrain)
Call us to answer oppression,
Teach us the fire of your truth;
Give us righteous souls,
'Til your justice rolls,
make us burn with the fire of your truth. (Refrain)
Call us to witness your Kingdom,
Give us the presence of Christ;
May your holy light
Keep us shining bright,
Ever shine with the presence of Christ. (Refrain)
Composer: Marty Haugen (1989)

Hi Jonathan. Thank you for this post. I was wondering if you have or if you know where I can get a musical score or guitar chords for "Send Down The Fire." We want to use it for our choir's service. Thank you and God bless.
