 1 

Thy Holy Spirit, Lord, alone

Can meet our need today;

His might alone empow'ring us

Can bring us neath Thy sway.

 

Thy Spirit of pow'r with might,

Send in our midst, we pray,

And come upon each seeking soul;

Baptize us with power today.

 
 2 

Thy Holy Spirit, Lord, alone

Can grant us Thy desire;

His power alone can turn our heart

And light the sacred fire.

 

Thy Spirit of pow'r with might,

Send in our midst, we pray,

And come upon each seeking soul;

Baptize us with power today.

 
 3 

Thy Holy Spirit, Lord, can give

The gifts we seek to share;

His pow'r can signs and wonders work

And stir up holy fear.

 

Thy Spirit of pow'r with might,

Send in our midst, we pray,

And come upon each seeking soul;

Baptize us with power today.

 
 4 

Thy Holy Spirit, Lord, can bring

The show'r we need this hour;

And while we seek, Lord Jesus, come

In motivating power.

 

Thy Spirit of pow'r with might,

Send in our midst, we pray,

And like a rushing, mighty wind

Sweep over our souls today.
