Author: L. C. H. Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: What did they do on Pentecost Refrain First Line: They spoke with tongues and so will you Lyrics: 1 What did they do on Pentecost,
When the Spirit first was giv’n,
When fell the blessed Holy Ghost,
Like a rushing wind form heav’n?
Chorus:
They spoke with tongues and so will you
When He sends the Holy Ghost;
His pow’r will fall upon you, too,
AS it fell at Pentecost.
2 What did they do at Caesarea
When God’s servant spoke the word,
When they were met, with joy to hear
Tidings of the risen Lord? [Chorus]
3 What did they do at Ephesus?
Thru the great apostle Paul,
God gave the sign as at the first—
And He gives the sign to all. [Chorus]
4 What did they do the wide world o’er,
When the Holy Ghost was giv’n,
When they received the promise sure
Of the Spirit sent from heav’n? [Chorus]
5 Even today in copious show’r
Falls the promised latter rain;
They who receive the old-time pow’r
Speak “in other tongues” again. [Chorus]
Used With Tune: [What did they do on Pentecost]
What Did Thy Do?
