Text Based On Luke Chapter 11
If ye then, being evil, know how to
give good gifts unto your children:
how much more shall your heavenly Father
give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
Send Thy Power
Thou Christ of burning, cleansing flame,
Send Thy power, send Thy power,
Send Thy power!
Thy blood bought gift today we claim,
Send Thy power, send Thy power,
Send Thy power!
Look down and see this waiting host,
Give us Thy promised Holy Ghost;
We need another Pentecost,
Send Thy power, send Thy power,
Send Thy power!
God of Elijah, hear our cry:
Send Thy power, send Thy power,
Send Thy power!
To make us fit to live or die,
Send Thy power, send Thy power,
Send Thy power!
To burn up every trace of sin,
To bring the light and glory in,
Thy revolution now begin,
Send Thy power, send Thy power,
Send Thy power!
’Tis Thy power we want,
Thy power we plead,
Send Thy power, send Thy power,
Send Thy power!
Thy power will meet our every need,
Send Thy power, send Thy power,
Send Thy power!
For strength to ever do the right,
For grace to conquer in the fight,
For power to walk the world in white,
Send Thy power, send Thy power,
Send Thy power!
To make our weak hearts strong and brave,
Send Thy power, send Thy power,
Send Thy power!
To live a dying world to save,
Send Thy power, send Thy power,
Send Thy power!
O see us on Thy altar lay
Our lives, our all, this very day;
To crown the offering now we pray,
Send Thy power, send Thy power,
Send Thy power!
