Refrain O Lord, send the power just now, O Lord, send the power just now; O Lord, send the power just now And baptize every one.

• [Act 2:2] Above The Starry Spheres

  Above the starry spheres, To where He was before, Christ had gone up, the Father’s gift Upon the Church to pour. At length had fully come, On mystic circle borne Of seven times seven revolving days, The Pentecostal morn. When, as the Apostles knelt At the third hour in prayer, A sudden rushing sound proclaimed That God Himself was there. Forthwith a tongue of fire Is seen on every brow, Each heart receives the Father’s light, The Word’s enkindling glow. The Holy Ghost on all Is mightily outpoured, Who straight in divers tongues declare The wonders of the Lord. While strangers of all climes Flock round from far and near, And their own tongue, wherever born, All with amazement hear. But Judah, faithless still, Denies the hand divine; And, mocking, jeers the saints of Christ As full of new made wine. Till Peter, in the midst, By Joel’s ancient word, Rebukes their unbelief, and wins Three thousand to the Lord. The Father and the Son And Spirit we adore, O may the Spirit’s gifts be poured On us forevermore.

• [Act 2:2] Come Down, O Love Divine

  Come down, O love divine, seek Thou this soul of mine, And visit it with Thine own ardor glowing. O Comforter, draw near, within my heart appear, And kindle it, Thy holy flame bestowing. O let it freely burn, til earthly passions turn To dust and ashes in its heat consuming; And let Thy glorious light shine ever on my sight, And clothe me round, the while my path illuming. Let holy charity mine outward vesture be, And lowliness become mine inner clothing; True lowliness of heart, which takes the humbler part, And o’er its own shortcomings weeps with loathing. And so the yearning strong, with which the soul will long, Shall far outpass the power of human telling; For none can guess its grace, till he become the place Wherein the Holy Spirit makes His dwelling.

Refrain They were gathered in the upper room, All praying in His Name, They were baptized in the Holy Ghost, And power for service came; Now what He did for them that day He’ll do for you the same, And I’m glad that I can say I’m one of them. Refrain Come, my brother seek this blessing That will cleanse your heart from sin, That will start the joy bells ringing And will keep the soul aflame; It is burning now within my heart— All glory to His Name!— And I’m glad that I can say I’m one of them.

• [Act 2:2] When God Of Old Came Down From Heav’n

  When God of old came down from Heav’n, In power and wrath He came; Before His feet the clouds were riven, Half darkness and half flame: But when He came the second time, He came in power and love; Softer than gale at morning prime Hovered His holy Dove. The fires, that rushed on Sinai down In sudden torrents dread, Now gently light, a glorious crown, On every sainted head. And as on Israel’s awestruck ear The voice exceeding loud, The trump that angels quake to hear, Thrilled from the deep, dark cloud; So, when the Spirit of our God Came down His flock to find, A voice from Heav’n was heard abroad, A rushing, mighty wind. It fills the Church of God; it fills The sinful world around; Only in stubborn hearts and wills No place for it is found. Come Lord, come Wisdom, Love and Power, Open our ears to hear; Let us not miss the accepted hour; Save, Lord, by love or fear.

On each the fire, descending, stood In quivering tongues’ similitude— Tongues, that their words might ready prove, And fire, to make them flame with love. To all in every tongue they spoke; Amazement in the crowd awoke, Who mocked, as overcome with wine, Those who were filled with power divine. These things were done in type that day, When Eastertide had passed away, The number told which once set free The captive at the jubilee.

We mourn that e’er our hearts should be One with a world that loves not Thee; That with the crowd we passed Thee by, And saw, but did not feel, Thee die. Not till we knew our guilt and shame Did we esteem our Savior’s Name.

• [Act 2:38] To Jordan Came Our Christ, The Lord

  To Jordan came our Lord the Christ, To do God’s pleasure willing, And there was by Saint John baptized, All righteousness fulfilling; There did He consecrate a bath To wash away transgression, And quench the bitterness of death By His own blood and passion; He would a new life give us. So hear ye all, and well perceive What God doth call baptism, And what a Christian should believe Who error shuns and schism: That we should water use, the Lord Declareth it His pleasure; Not simple water, but the Word And Spirit without measure; He is the true Baptizer. To show us this, He hath His Word With signs and symbols given; On Jordan’s banks was plainly heard The Father’s voice from Heaven: “This is My well-beloved Son, In whom My soul delighteth; Hear Him.” Yea, hear Him every one Whom He Himself inviteth, Hear and obey His teaching. In tender manhood Jesus straight To holy Jordan wendeth; The Holy Ghost from Heaven’s gate In dovelike shape descendeth; That thus the truth be not denied, Nor should our faith e’er waver, That the Three Persons all preside, At baptism’s holy laver, And dwell with the believer. Thus Jesus His disciples sent: Go teach ye every nation, That lost in sin they must repent; And flee from condemnation: He that believes and is baptized, Obtains a mighty blessing; A new-born man, no more he dies, Eternal life possessing, A joyful heir of Heaven. Who in this mercy hath not faith, Nor aught therein discerneth, Is yet in sin, condemned to death, And fire that ever burneth; His holiness avails him not, Nor aught which he is doing; His inborn sin brings all to naught, And maketh sure his ruin; Himself he cannot succor. The eye of sense alone is dim, And nothing sees but water; Faith sees Christ Jesus, and in Him The Lamb ordained for slaughter; She sees the cleansing fountain red With the dear blood of Jesus, Which from the sins inherited From fallen Adam frees us, And from our own misdoings.

Who but Thou had dared to drain, Steeped in gall, the cup of pain, And with tender body bear Thorns, and nails, and piercing spear? Thence the cleansing water flowed, Mingled from Thy side with blood; Sign to all attesting eyes Of the finished sacrifice. Holy Jesus, grant us peace In that sacrifice to place All our trust for life renewed, Pardoned sin and promised good. Grant us grace to sing to Thee, In the Trinal Unity, Ever with the sons of light, Blessing, honor, glory, might.

The few that truly call Thee Lord, And wait Thy sanctifying word, And Thee their utmost Savior own, Unite, and perfect them in one. O let them all Thy mind express, Stand forth Thy chosen witnesses, Thy power unto salvation show, And perfect holiness below! In them let all mankind behold How Christians lived in days of old, Mighty their envious foes to move, A proverb of reproach—and love. From every sinful wrinkle free, Redeemed from all iniquity, The fellowship of saints make known; And, O my God, might I be one! O might my lot be cast with these, The least of Jesu’s witnesses! O that my Lord would count me meet To wash His dear disciples’ feet! This only thing do I require: Thou knowest ’tis all my heart’s desire Freely what I receive to give, The servant of Thy church to live; After my lowly Lord to go, And wait upon Thy saints below; Enjoy the grace to angels given, And serve the royal heirs of Heaven. Lord, if I now Thy drawings feel, And ask according to Thy will, Confirm the prayer, the seal impart, And speak the answer to my heart.

Thine own Witness is in Heaven, True and faithful, to thee given, Witness of thy blamelessness; By thy name a crown implying, Meet it is thou shouldst be dying For the crown of righteousness. For the crown that fadeth never Bear the torturer’s brief endeavor; Victory waits to end the strife; Death shall be thy life’s beginning, And life’s losing be the winning Of the true and better life. Filled with God’s most Holy Spirit, See the Heav’n thou shalt inherit, Stephen, gaze into the skies; There God’s glory steadfast viewing, Thence thy victor strength renewing, Pant for thy eternal prize. See, as Jewish foes invade thee, See how Jesus stands to aid thee, Stands at God’s right hand on high: Tell how opened heaven is shown thee, Tell how Jesus waits to own thee, Tell it with thy latest cry.
