Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: The Hymnal #220 (1956) Lyrics: 1 Lord, we believe to us and ours
The apostolic promise given;
We wait the pentecostal powers,
The Holy Ghost sent down from heaven.
2 To everyone whom God shall call
The promise is securely made;
To you far off, he calls you all;
Believe the word which Christ hat said:
3 "The Holy Ghost, if I depart,
The Comforter shall surely come,
Shall make the contrite sinner's heart,
His loved, his everlasting home."
4 Assembled here with one accord,
Calmly we wait the promised grace,
The purchase of our dying Lord,
Come, Holy Ghost, and fill the place.
Amen.
