Victory Songs ‎#63

63. Old-Time Power.

1 They were in an upper chamber,
They were all with one accord,
When the Holy Ghost descended,
As was promised by the Lord.

Chorus:
O Lord, send the pow’r just now,
O Lord, send the pow’r just now;
O Lord, send the pow’r just now
And baptize ev'ry one.

2 Yes, this pow’r from Heav’n descended
With the sound of rushing wind;
Tongues of fire came down upon them,
As the Lord said He would send. [Chorus]

3 Yes, this old-time pow’r was given
To our fathers who were true;
This is promised to believers,
And we all may have it too. [Chorus]
