Waiting on the Lord,
for the promise given;
Waiting on the Lord,
to send from Heaven;
Waiting on the Lord,
by our faith receiving;
Waiting in the upper room.
The power! the power!
Gives vict’ry over sin,
and purity within;
The power! the power!
The pow’r they had at Pentecost.
Waiting on the Lord,
giving all to Jesus;
Waiting on the Lord,
till from sin He frees us;
Waiting on the Lord
for the heav’nly breezes;
Waiting in the upper room.
The power! the power!
Gives vict’ry over sin,
and purity within;
The power! the power!
The pow’r they had at Pentecost.
Waiting on the Lord,
longing to mount higher;
Waiting on the Lord,
having great desire;
Waiting on the Lord,
for the heav’nly fire;
Waiting in the upper room.
The power! the power!
Gives vict’ry over sin,
and purity within;
The power! the power!
The pow’r they had at Pentecost.
