Latter-Day Saints Congregational Hymns ‎#64

64. The Spirit of God Like a Fire

1. The Spirit of God like a fire is burning!
The latter day glory begins to come forth,
The visions and blessings of old are returning!
And angels are coming to visit the earth

Refrain:
We'll sing and we'll shout with the armies of heaven,
Hosanna, hosanna to God and the Lamb!
Let glory to them in the highest be given,
Henceforth and forever; amen, and amen!

2. The Lord is extending the Saints' understanding,
Restoring their judges and all as at first,
The knowledge and power of God are expanding,
The vail o'er the earth is beginning to burst [Refrain]

4. How blessed the day when the lamb and the lion,
Shall lie down together without any ire,
And Ephraim be crowned with his blessing in Zion,
As Jesus descends with His chariots of fire! [Refrain]
