Hymn 47
The Holy Spirit came at Pentecost
The Holy Spirit came at Pentecost
He came in mighty fullness there
His witness through believers won and lost
And multitudes were born again
The early Christians scattered O'er the world
They preached the gospel fearlessly
Though some were martyred and to lions hurled
They marched along in victory
Come Holy Spirit, dark is the hour
We need your filling, Your love and your mighty power.
Move now among us, stir us, we pray
Come Holy Spirit, Revive the church today.
Then in an age when darkness gripped the earth
The just shall live bt faith was learned
The Holy Spirit gave the church new birth
As reformation fires burned
In later years the revivals came
When saints would seek the Lord and pray
O once again we need that Holy flame
To meet the challenge of today.
