8.7.8.7.D.

GOD is here, and that to bless us

With the Spirit’s quickening power!

See, the cloud, already bending,

Waits to drop the grateful shower.

Let it come, O Lord, we pray Thee,

Let the shower of blessing fall;

We are waiting, we are waiting,

Oh, revive the hearts of all.

2

God is here! we feel His presence

In this consecrated place;

But we need the soul refreshing

Of His free, unbounded grace.

3

God is here! oh, then, believing,

Bring to Him our one desire,

That His love may now be kindled,

Till its flame each heart inspire.

4

Saviour, grant the prayer we offer,

While in simple faith we bow;

From the windows of Thy mercy

Pour us out a blessing now.
