1. They were in an upper chamber,
    They were all with one accord
    When the Holy Ghost descended,
    As was promised by our 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.
