With Signs Following

5 verses

Verse 1

When first the risen Lord of pow'r His chosen ones sent forth, A charge He gave, that solemn hour, To preach His saving worth. "Go ye," said He, "to all mankind; Declare My Word, and ye shall find: These signs shall surely follow them Who on My Name believe."

Verse 2

"No demons shall before them stand, No poison do them harm; Nor subtle serpent in their hand Cause pain or dread alarm." For Satan's kingdom He o'ercame, To give His people right to claim: "These signs shall surely follow them Who on My Name believe."

Verse 3

"They shall with other tongues declare The wonders of their God: The sick beneath their hands, by prayer, Shall rise, to prove My Word," So let it be! Firm as His Throne Stands this clear promise to His own: "These signs shall surely follow them Who on My Name believe."

Verse 4

Crowned with the flame of Pentecost, A faithful, fearless band Proclaimed His Name: a ransomed host Arose from every land. The Lord worked with them from on High, His proven Word could none deny: "These signs shall surely follow them Who on My Name believe."

Verse 5

No word of Thine is void of power; No promise, Lord, is vain. Be this a Pentecostal hour - Confirm Thy Word again! Nor can'st Thou fail! Thou art the same As when of old Thou did'st proclaim: "These signs shall surely follow them Who on My Name believe."
