God promised to pour out the Holy Spirit on all people. / So that our sons and our daughters might prophesy.

Our old men would dream; / Our young people would have inspired ideas.

On both men and women, young and old, throughout society, / God promised to pour the Holy Spirit.

Let us see you and your wonders here, O God: / around and among us today.
