where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.” –Acts 4:31 For a fresh anointing, Lord, for service Come we now in Jesus’ precious name; For the blessed Pentecostal fullness, Every heart with heav’nly love aflame. Send a new touch of fire on our souls, Lord, Send it now, Lord, send it now, Lord; Touch our lips today with the living coals, Send a new touch of fire on our souls. Make us free to tell the gospel story, Liberty in service may we have; Showing forth the Savior’s grace and glory, Telling of His wondrous pow’r to save. Send a new touch of fire on our souls, Lord, Send it now, Lord, send it now, Lord; Touch our lips today with the living coals, Send a new touch of fire on our souls. Bringing all we have in consecration As a living sacrifice for Thee; Trusting for an uttermost salvation, Jesus’ precious blood our only plea. Send a new touch of fire on our souls, Lord, Send it now, Lord, send it now, Lord; Touch our lips today with the living coals, Send a new touch of fire on our souls. Let the great Refiner throughly purge us, Purify our hearts like as by fire; While for all the sanctifying fullness Here our waiting, longing hearts aspire. Send a new touch of fire on our souls, Lord, Send it now, Lord, send it now, Lord; Touch our lips today with the living coals, Send a new touch of fire on our souls. Send a new touch of fire on our souls, Lord, Send it now, Lord, send it now, Lord; Touch our lips today with the living coals, Send a new touch of fire on our souls. A NEW TOUCH OF FIRE
“And when they had prayed, the place was shaken
where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.” –Acts 4:31
