V4.5-ALL

[singer A]
Till the day when he was taken up
to heaven after he had given his orders
through the Holy Spirit to the Apostles of whom
he had made selection:

And to whom he gave clear and certain signs
that he was living after his death;
for he was seen by them for forty days and gave them
teaching about the kingdom of God:

[transition]

[singer B]
How can people call on The ONE they have not believed in?
And how can they believe in The ONE -IF- they have not yet even heard?
And how can they HEAR without someone teaching ABOUT Him?
I gave an earlier account, Theophilus of all the things
which Jesus did, both to do and teach till the day
when he was taken up to heaven after he had given his orders, through the Holy Spirit,
and giving the commandments to the apostles whom he had chosen:

To all whom he showed himself
- Alive! "I am!"
After his passion,
by many infallible proofs!
Being SEEN
by the apostles
for forty days,
and speaking of things pertaining to the Kingdom of God!

[transition]

[singer A]
And when they were all together with him
he gave them orders not to go away from
Jerusalem but to keep there
waiting till the word of the Father was put into effect
of which he said
I have given you knowledge:

For the baptism of John was with water
but you will have baptism with the Holy Spirit
after a little time.

So when they were together they said to him
Lord, will you at this time give back the kingdom to Israel?

And he said to them
It is not for you
to have knowledge of the time and the order of events
which the Father has kept in his control.

But you will have power
when the Holy Spirit has come on you
and you will be my witnesses
in Jerusalem and all Judaea and Samaria
and to the ends of the earth.

[instrumental]

[singer B]
John baptized with water;
but you shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost
not many days hence.

when they were together, they said to him, Lord,
will you at this time give back the kingdom to Israel?
And he said to them, It's not for you to know of the time and order of events
which the Father has kept in his control. But you will have power
when the Holy Spirit has come on you;
and you'll be my witnesses in Jerusalem, all Judaea, Samaria, and to all the ends of the earth.

To all whom he showed himself
- Alive! "I am!"
After his passion,
by many infallible proofs!
Being SEEN
by the apostles
for forty days,
and speaking of things pertaining to the Kingdom of God!

[transition]

[singer A]
But you will have power
when the Holy Spirit has come on you
and you will be my witnesses
in Jerusalem and all Judaea and Samaria
and to the ends of the earth.
