163. Pentecostal Power.

1 Lord, as of old at Pentecost
Thou didst Thy power display,
With cleansing, purifying flame
Descend on us today.

Chorus:
Lord, send the old-time pow'r, The Pentecostal pow'r!
Thy floodgates of blessing on us throw open wide!
Lord send the old-time pow'r, the Pentecostal pow'r,
That sinners be converted and Thy name glorified!

2 For mighty works for Thee prepare,
And strengthen ev'ry heart;
Come, take possession of Thine own,
And nevermore depart. [Chorus]

3 All self consume, all sin destroy!
With earnest zeal endue
Each waiting heart to work for Thee;
O Lord, our faith renew! [Chorus]

4 Speak, Lord! before Thy throne we wait,
Thy promise we believe,
And will not let Thee go until
The blessing we receive. [Chorus]
