Ezekiel 1:4
| 1 |
There's a stormy wind a-blowing from the north; Let it blow! Let it blow! God as our exp'rience will the wind bring forth; Let it blow! Let it blow! |
|
Let it blow! the rushing mighty wind; Let it blow us into life! Let it blow! the gracious wind of God; Let it blow us into Christ! |
| 2 |
There's a hov'ring cloud a-following the wind, Covering us! Covering us! And the presence of the Lord the cloud does bring, Covering us! Covering us! |
|
Covering us, God's overshadowing cloud — God has come to stay with us. Covering us, the gracious cloud of God — Strength and comfort glorious! |
| 3 |
With the cloud continually a fire does flash Burning us! Burning us! It exposes sin, the soul life, and the flesh, Burning us! Burning us! |
|
Let it burn! the jealous flame of God; Let it burn continually! Let it burn! this all-consuming flame; Let it burn us thoroughly! |
| 4 |
Then from out the fire does the electrum glow, Shining forth! Shining forth! The redeeming God does our experience show, Shining forth! Shining forth! |
|
Let Him shine! This gold and silver One; Let Him shine for all to see! 'Tis the Lamb-God who has now become Our enjoyment inwardly. |
| 5 |
Let the wind, cloud, fire and th' electrum be Wrought in us, o'er and o'er; Let this cycle be repeated constantly More and more, more and more! |
|
Blow and hover, burn and shine forth, Lord, All our being to possess, That we all may gain Thee constantly All Thy likeness to express. |
