God's Spirit is in my heart.
He has called me and set me apart.
This is what I have to do,
what I have to do:
He sent me to give the good news to the poor,
tell prisoners that they are prisoners no more.
Tell blind people that they can see,
and set the down-trodden free.
And go tell everyone the news that the Kingdom of God has come.
And go tell everyone the news that God's Kingdom has come.
Just as the Father sent me,
so I am sending you out to be
my witnesses throughout His world.
The whole of the world.
He sent me to give the good news to the poor,
tell prisoners that they are prisoners no more.
Tell blind people that they can see,
and set the down-trodden free.
And go tell everyone the news that the Kingdom of God has come.
And go tell everyone the news that God's Kingdom has come.
Don't carry a load in your pack,
you don't need two shirts on your back.
The workman can earn his own keep,
Can earn his own keep.
He sent me to give the good news to the poor,
tell prisoners that they are prisoners no more.
Tell blind people that they can see,
and set the down-trodden free.
And go tell everyone the news that the Kingdom of God has come.
And go tell everyone the news that God's Kingdom has come.
Don't worry what you have to say.
Don't worry because on that day,
God's Spirit will speak in your heart,
will speak in your heart!
He sent me to give the good news to the poor,
tell prisoners that they are prisoners no more.
Tell blind people that they can see,
and set the down-trodden free.
And go tell everyone the news that the Kingdom of God has come.
And go tell everyone the news that God's Kingdom has come.
Happy Sunday!
Tomorrow we shall be commemorating the 319th Anniversary of the Battle of the Boyne.

This must be one of the naffest hymn tunes I know. I also want to go boom boom at the end of each verse. The tune starts so low!
I agree that the tune is dreadful - but I rather like the words, and they obviously fit in well with today's Gospel.
