Tune:[I need the pow'r of Pentecost]
Composer:J. Lincoln Hall

18. Lord, Give Me Power

1 I need the pow’r of Pentecost,
Within my soul today,
To give me vict’ry over sin,
Lord, give this pow’r I pray.

Refrain:
Lord, give me pow’r,
Lord, give me pow’r,
I need the Holy Spirit
To keep me hour by hour.
Lord, give me pow’r,
This very hour,
Anoint me for Thy service,
And give me pow’r.

2 I need the pow’r of Pentecost,
From pride to set me free,
To burn up all the sinful dross,
And Jesus only see. [Refrain]

3 I need the pow’r of Pentecost,
To make me white as snow;
O may it now descend on me
In full, abundant flow. [Refrain]
