117. The Pentecostal Fire

1 There are souls in sin which we fail to win,
Just because we lack desire;
And the thing we need—sorely need indeed—
Is the pentecostal fire.

Refrain:
That’s the thing, the very thing,
That is what we must acquire;
Let us pray once more as they did of yore
For the pentecostal fire.

2 He will send it down and our lives will crown
With the blessing day by day;
If we truly plead for the thing we need
In the earnest, old-time way. [Refrain]

3 Let us seek the face of the King of grace,
Let us do His holy will;
Then the fire will come on each heart and home,
For He loves the faithful still. [Refrain]

4 If your heart is cold and you’ve lost the pow’r,
God will give you your desire;
If we seek His face ev’ry day and hour,
He will send the old-time fire. [Refrain]
