|  |  | 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 might 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. |
