What Meaneth this?

Author: E. Grace Updegraff Hymnal: Songs of Love and Praise No. 4 #128 (1897) First Line: “What meaneth this?” this strange display Refrain First Line: This is the Lord, the Holy One Lyrics: 1 “What meaneth this?” this strange display, These cloven tongues, like as of fire, This sudden sound like rushing wind, They all with one accord enquire. Refrain: This is the Lord, the Holy One, This is the promised pow’r bestowed; The Holy Ghost has surely come, And taken up his own abode. 2 “What meaneth this?” oh, blessed Lord, Thy waiting saints all know full well Thy presence manifested there, Indued with pow’r, thy love to tell. [Refrain] 3 O, Pentecost, sweet upper room Where holy fire unloosed the dumb; “What meaneth this?” oh, praise his name; The promised pow’r has fully come. [Refrain] 4 “What meaneth this?” such holy joy, This intermingling wave of sounds; O, “This is That” which promised was, And now the Holy Ghost abounds. [Refrain] Scripture: Acts 2:16 Tune Title: [“What meaneth this?” this strange display]
