11. Send it Down Just Now

1 O Lord, descend in mighty pow’r
And pentecostal flame;
Upon my waiting heart this hour
Inscribe thy sweet new name.

Refrain:
For I want salvation, and I’m told that it is free;
Send it down, Lord, send it down just now!
At the cross I’m waiting, let the blessing fall on me;
Send it down, Lord, send it down just now.

2 I’m tired of sin, and from its thrall
I come to find release;
Dear Jesus, on thy name I call,
Oh, fill me with thy peace. [Refrain]

3 I seek salvation, peace and rest,
And freedom from all sin;
Come, take possession of my breast,
And rule and reign within. [Refrain]
