Verse 1
When first the Risen Lord of Pow’r
His chosen ones sent forth,
A charge He gave, that solemn hour,
To preach His saving worth
“Go ye,” said He, “to all man-
kind;
Declare My word, and ye shall [find:
These signs shall surely follow them
Who on My Name believe.”
Verse 2
“No demons shall before them
No poison do them harm:
Nor subtle serpent in their hand [stand,
Cause pain or dead alarm.”
For Satan’s Kingdom He o’ercame.
To give His people right to claim:
These signs shall surely follow them
Who on My Name believe.
Verse 3
“They shall with other tongues de [clare
The wonders of their God;
The sick beneath their hands by prayer,
Shall rise, to prove My Word.”
So let it bel Firm as His Throne
Stands this clear promise to His own:
These signs shall surely follow them
Who on My Name believe.
Verse 4
Crowned with the flame of Pente[cost,
A faithful, fearless band
Proclaimed His Name a ransomed [host
Arose from every land.
The Lord worked with them from
on High,
His proven word could none deny:
These signs shall surely follow them
Who on My name believe.
Verse 5
No word of Thine is void of power;
No promise, Lord, is vain,
Be this a Pentecostal hour
Confirm Thy Word again!
Nor canst Thou fail! Thou art the
same
As when shall surely follow [them
Who on My Name believe.
