76. Send the Power Again

1 There was pow’r, O Lord, in the days of old,
To kindle a fire in hearts grown cold;
That we on Thy word may now lay hold,
Lord, send that pow’r again.

Refrain:
Lord, send the pow’r again,
O send the pow’r again!
We believe on Thy name,
And Thy promise we claim,
Lord, send the pow’r again.

2 There was pow’r by which every tongue could speak,
New life-giving pow’r unto the weak,
That sent them the wand’ring ones to seek—
Lord, send that pow’r again. [Refrain]

3 There was pow’r to set ev’ry captive free
And give to Thy servants liberty
To speak and to pray and work for Thee—
Lord, send that pow’r again. [Refrain]

4 There was pow’r, O Lord, in the old-time pray’r,
It thrilled every heart and lingered there,
Till we in Thy glory seemed to share—
Lord, send that pow’r again. [Refrain]
