When I was a child I remember singing this in church but when I ask around now, no one seems to remember it.

It goes something along the lines of this....

Oh Lord Sent the Power Just Now
Oh Lord Sent the Power Just Now
Oh Lord Send the Power Just Now
and Baptised Everyone....

Hi Brandan89,

The hymn is "Oh Lord Send the Power Just Now", by Charles Tillman.

1.
They were in an upper chamber,
They were all with one accord,
When the Holy Ghost descended
As was promised by the Lord.

Chorus
O Lord, send the power just now,
O Lord, send the power just now;
O Lord, send the power just now
And baptize every one.

2.
Yes, the power from Heav'n descended
With the sound of rushing wind;
Tongues of fire came down upon them,
As the Lord said He would send.

Chorus

3.
Yes, this "old time" power was given
To our fathers who were true;
This is promised to believers,
And we all may have it too.

Chorus

Hope it helps. God bless!
Steve
