Give us o Lord thine unction
Anoint us for thine work
Arise and set us in motion
O Lord the Man of war
Baptize us Lord with thy fire
And set our Souls aflame
To burn and shine for thy cause,
Revive your zeal in us
Refine us Lord and cleanse us,
Clothe us in holiness;
Transform our thoughts and nature,
Till we your glory show
New Hearts, more love, more passion
For Souls in Satan’s train
With hook or net use us still
Make us fishers of men
Not gold, not power, not knowledge
Will thy Heavens unlock
But prayer and faith and unity
Will bring the latter Rain
With tears and groans and fasting
O Lord, help us to pray
Travailing as in birth for Souls
Till you revive the Church
HIGHER GROUND
I’m pressing on the upward way
New heights I’m gaining ev’ryday
Still praying as I
onward bound
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground
REFRAIN:
Lord, lift me up, and let me stand
By
faith on heaven’s stable land
A higher plane than I have
found;
Lord plant my feet on higher ground
My heart has no desire to
stay
Where doubts arise and fear dismay
Though some may dwell where these abound
My prayer, my aim, is higher ground.
REFRAIN
I want to live above the world,
Though Satan’s darts at me are hurled;
For faith has caught the joyful sound,
The song of saints on higher ground.
REFRAIN
I want to scale the utmost height
And catch a gleam of glory bright;
But still I’ll pray till Heav’n I’ve found,
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”
REFRAIN
