242. Pentecostal Blessing

1 We have heard the blessed story,
Now we need Thy promised glory,
Lord send on us the Pentecostal blessing;
To the old land marks returning,
With our hungry hearts now yearning,
Lord send on us the Pentecostal blessing.

Chorus:
Lord send on us the Pentecostal blessing,
Lord send on us the Pentecostal blessing,
Like a rushing, mighty wind
Let the Holy Ghost come in,
Lord send on us the Pentecostal blessing.

2 While we’re watching, waiting, pleading
For Thy promised grace exceeding,
Lord send on us the Pentecostal blessing;
Sweeping down from highest heaven,
Cleanse our hearts from sinful leaven,
Lord send on us the Pentecostal blessing. [Chorus]

3 Let us revel in Thy glory,
Pray and sing and tell the story,
Lord send on us the Pentecostal blessing;
Till each kindred, tribe and nation
Shall be blest with Thy salvation,
Lord send on us the Pentecostal blessing. [Chorus]
