1 I’m glad the flood, which flowed so free
On Calvary’s brow, for you and me,
Applied to hearts made foul by sin,
Removes the guilt, brings peace within.
Refrain:
O may the Savior’s precious blood,
The sacred, all atoning blood,
With cleansing power sweep o’er my soul,
To sanctify and make me whole.
2 I see God’s reconciled face,
Yet need a deeper work of grace,
The fullness which He can supply,
The cleansing blood to purify. [Refrain]
3 I want the Christian’s Pentecost,
The promised gift, the Holy Ghost,
To bring with sound like rushing wind,
Deliverance from the carnal mind. [Refrain]
4 To me this second blessing give,
That I the higher life may live;
This holiness, this perfect love,
For earth below or Heav’n above. [Refrain]
5 With faith in God, I lift a prayer,
My consecration now declare;
On Christ, the altar, lay my all,
And wait for fire from Heav’n to fall. [Refrain]
6 It comes with witness bright and clear,
To scatter doubts and banish fear;
Praise God, the Pentecostal shower
Breaks now with purity and power. [Refrain]
