God to all that ask shall give.
2 Ye all may freely take
The grace for Jesu's sake :
He for every man hath died :
He for all hath ris'n again :
Jesus now is glorified :
Gifts he hath received for men.
3 He sends them from the skies
On all his enemies :
By his cross he now hath led
Captive our captivity :
We shall all be free indeed,
Christ, the Son, shall make us free.
4 Blessings on all he pours,
In never-ceasing showers ;
All he waters from above ;
Offers all his joy and peace,
Settled comfort, perfect love,
Everlasting righteousness.
5 All may from him receive
A power to turn and live ;
Grace for every soul is free;
All may hear the' effectual call ;
All the Light and Life may see ;
All may feel he died for all.
6 Drop down in showers of love,
Ye heavens, from above !
Righteousness, ye skies, pour down !
Open earth, and take it in !
Claim the Spirit for your own,
Sinners, and be saved from sin !
08 Praying for a Blessing.
7 Father, behold, we claim
The gift in Jesu's Name !
Him. the promised Comforter,
Into all our spirits pour ;
Let him fix his mansion here,
Come, and never leave us more !
Before Reading the Scriptures.
