Victory Songs ‎#66

66. The Power of the Holy Ghost.

1 Come, Spirit, come in mighty pow'r,
As on the blessed day of old
When fell the Pentecostal show'r
That gathered thousands to the fold.

Chorus:
Nothing but the pow'r of the Holy Ghost
Can sanctify and keep thro' a Savior’s love,
And light within our souls the flame
That burns on the altar of heav’n above.

2 O for a mighty rushing wind
To fill this consecrated place,
That sinners lost might seek and find
The gate of hope, the door of grace. [Chorus]

3 O for a pow'r that heals the heart,
That takes away the dross of sin,
That we may, like the world, depart,
And let the King of Glory in. [Chorus]

4 Dear Savior, from Thy throne on high
Now grant the pow'r for which we call,
Till shouts of rapture fill the sky,
And Thou, O Lord, art all in all. [Chorus]
