Today's Hymn

Church Hymnal #121

1 They were in an upper chamber,
they were all with one accord,
when the Holy Ghost descended,
as was promised by the Lord.

Chorus
O Lord, send the pow'r just now,
O Lord, send the pow'r just now,
O Lord, send the pow'r just now,
and baptize ev'ry one.

2 Yes, this pow'r from heav’n descended,
with the sound of rushing wind;
tongues of fire came down upon them,
as the Lord said He would send.

3 Yes, this 'old-time' pow'r was given
to our fathers who were true;
this is promised to believers,
and we all may have it too.

Charlie D. Tillman (1985)
