From the heav’ns, O glorious Lord

From the heav’ns

O glorious Lord

You as Spirit were outpoured;

Varied grace did You bestow

To Your church on earth below;

By Your faithfulness

O Lord

Once again Your gifts afford.

I was baptized in Your name;

Spirits two thus one became;

Lord

Your Body has obtained

All Your gifts

all You’ve attained;

I’m a member

so

’tis plain

I

too

will this power gain.

Grant me power to proclaim

You’ve received the highest name;

Grant the gift that I might preach

All Your works to sinners reach.

For Your service

knowledge grant

Overcoming to implant.

Here

as hands are laid on me

As I make a vow to Thee

Gifts I long for solemnly.

On Your facts I base my plea:

Pow’r unlimited outpour;

Make us useful vessels

Lord.
