| 1. | Lord, we come to Thee, and with liberty |
| | Claim we now from Thee pow'r of might; |
| | For Thy kingdom's sake, may we pow'r |

| | Sitting in the heavenlies to fight. |
| | Power! power! clothe us with Thy power! |
| | With Thy mighty power from on high! |
| | Power! power! clothe us with Thy power! |
| | Boldly, as Thy Body, now we cry! |
| 2. | Lord, we look to Thee and with certainty |
| | Claim we now from Thee show'r divine, |
| | For Thy Body's sake, may we show'r partake, |
| | Thus be fitted for the work of Thine. |
| | Shower! shower! pour on us Thy shower! |
| | Pour Thy heav'nly shower from on high! |
| | Shower! shower! pour on us Thy shower! |
| | Boldly, as Thy Body, now we cry! |
| 3. | Lord, we wait on Thee, and with surety |
| | Claim we now from Thee fire divine. |
| | For Thy gospel's sake, may we fire partake, |
| | That the people's heart Thou may refine. |
| | Fire! fire! give us tongues of fire! |
| | To proclaim Thy message from on high! |
| | Fire! fire! give us tongues of fire! |
| | Boldly, as Thy Body, now we cry! |
