To the Wind of the Spirit
That blows everywhere,
Free and making others free
Free and bringing Liberation,
Victorious over the Law,
And over Sin and Death.
To the Wind of the Spirit
That swept into Jesus
And sent him to the poor
To announce good news for them
And freedom for the captives.
To the Wind of the Spirit
That worked on Pentecost
Removing prejudice and interests
And fear away from the Apostles,
Opening wide the doors of the cenacle
So that the community of Jesus' followers
Could always be open to the world
Free in their word,
Coherent in their witness,
Unbeatable in their hope.
To the Wind of the Spirit
That always sweeps away fears from the Church
And sets all powers on fire
Except the power for fraternal service
And purifies the church through poverty and martyrdom.
To the Wind of the Spirit
That brings arrogance, hypocrisy and lust to ashes.
And feeds the flames of justice and liberation
And makes the soul of the Kingdom.
So that we are Wind in the Wind, sisters and brothers.
