Lyrics: Shaker Spiritual
Tune: Arr. T. Erickson, 1995
Meter: P.M.

I feel the need of a deeper baptism into the work of the Lord,
The holy ghost and the fire from heaven, the sharp and quickening word.
I want to eat at my father's table the bread that perisheth not,
And drink of the water pure and holy that flows from the city of God.
