| Text: | Fervent Prayer Availeth |
| Author: | G. F. R. |
| Tune: | [Come in earnest fervent prayer] |
| Composer: | G. F. Root |
1 Come in earnest fervent prayer,
To the Lord our Savior,
They who in his Spirit seek,
Shall receive his favor.
Refrain:
Glory to his holy name,
Fervent prayer availeth,
Now and evermore the same,
Fervent prayer availeth.
2 On that Pentecostal day,
When their prayers were blended,
How upon the Christian host,
Tongues of fire descended. [Refrain]
3 When the Lord’s disciples prayed,
Faith in him possessing,
How upon their foll’wers came
Every needed blessing. [Refrain]
4 So we may be every day,
His rich grace receiving,
If we only ask aright,
Humbly and believing. [Refrain]
