Lyrics

Pour Out Your Spirit

Verse 1:
Hallelujah to the King of Kings!
The Lord is mighty, and love fills His heart.
While we were drowning in our sins, He stretched forth His hands,
And through His loving Son, we received His mercy.

He broke the chains and set the captives free;
He unites the Father with all who believe.
Sing to His glory and the age to come.
Exalt His name through every generation.

Chorus:
O Jesus, at the mention of Your name, darkness gives way.
Oh Messiah, at the mention of Your name, the fallen tremble.

Verse 2:
Gracious is the Lord, on His throne, He's so amazing.
Higher, Lord, is Your place among the nations.
You are King over all the nations; pour out Your Spirit with compassion
On the young and old, O merciful Lord, heal our land. (2x) *Chorus 2x*

Outro:
Pour out Your Spirit, Father, on the young and old;
Heal Your children across the world.
