86. The Great Gift

1 All glory and praise to Jesus our Lord
So plenteous in grace, and so true to his word.

Chorus:
Hallelujah, thine the glory! hallelujah, amen!
Hallelujah, thine the glory! revive us again.

2 To us he hath given the gift from above--
The earnest of heaven, the Spirit of love. [Chorus]

3 Ye all may receive, on Jesus who call,
The gift of his Spirit, 'tis proffered to all. [Chorus]

4 The peace and the power, ye sinners, embrace,
And look for the shower--the Spirit of grace. [Chorus]

5 The Giver and gift we all may receive,
Forever and ever within us to live. [Chorus]
