Additional Hymn · Hymn 888

The power that fell at Pentecost

“ Ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Spirit is come upon you”. Acts. 1:8

1.

The power that fell at Pentecost

When in the upper room

Upon the watching waiting ones

The Holy Ghost had come

Remaineth evermore the same

Unchanging still, O praise His name

Refrain

The pow’r, the pow’r

The Pentecostal pow’r

Is just the same today

Is just the same today

The pow’r, the pow’r

The Pentecostal pow’r

Is just the same today

2.

“Ye shall have power (said Jesus) when

The Holy Ghost is come”

Your loosened tongues shall speak His praise

Your lips no more be dumb

The timid, shrinking ones be brave

To reach a hand the lost to save

3.

The wav’ring shall steadfast become

The weak in faith be strong

With holy boldness going forth

Denouncing sin and wrong

With burning zeal each heart aflame

A whole salvation to proclaim

4.

Breathe on us now the Holy Ghost

The young and the old inspire

Let each receive his Pentecost

Set hearts and tongues afire

Thou wonderful transforming power

Come now in this accepted hour

Amen
