1 In thy name, O blessed Saviour,
Gathered in this sacred place;
Here we seek a Father’s blessing,
Plead and pray for needed grace;
From the ocean of thy fulness,
Boundless, fathomless and free,
Let a tidal wave come sweeping,
Setting hearts at liberty.

Refrain:
Lift the flood-gates, lift the flood-gates,
Let the tide come sweeping in;
Blessed tide of full salvation,
Washing, cleansing from all sin.

2 Lift the flood-gates, let salvation
In tremendous currents flow,
To the uttermost fulfilling
Thy blest mission here below;
Until myriads of sinners,
Borne on love’s resistless tide,
Shall be swept into the kingdom,
And believers sanctified. [Refrain]

3 It is coming, we believe it,
Thou dost hear and answer pray’r;
It is coming, we shall see it,
Thine almighty arm made bare;
Tides of power, tides of glory,
Holy tides of perfect love,
Satisfying, overflowing,
Coming on us from above. [Refrain]
