Pentecost

Charles Wesley • English

Primary Scripture: John 14:16

Verse 1

Lord, we believe to us and ours Thy precious promises were given; We wait the pentecostal powers, The Holy Ghost sent down from Heaven.

Verse 2

Assembled here with one accord, Calmly we wait the promised grace, The purchase of our dying Lord; Come, Holy Ghost, and fill the place.

Verse 3

If every one that asks may find, If still thou dost on sinners fall, Come as a mighty rushing wind; Great grace be now upon us all.

Verse 4

Behold, to thee our souls aspire, And languish thy descent to meet; Kindle in each the living fire, And fix in every heart thy seat.
