Elijah’s God Still Lives

Elijah made a sac­ri­fice

To of­fer to Je­ho­vah;

It had been wet with wa­ter thrice

Baal’s sac­ri­fice was ov­er.

Elijah prayed: the fire came down

And licked the wa­ter all around;

So doubt­ing ones be­lieved

and found

Elijah’s God was liv­ing.

Elijah’s God still lives to­day

To take the guilt of sin away;

And when I pray my heart’s de­sire

Upon my soul He sends the fire.

Elijah’s God still lives to­day

And an­swers still by fire;

My friend

just let Him have His way;

He’ll grant your heart’s de­sire.

Consume the sac­ri­fice you make

And bid your slum­ber­ing soul awake;

The chains of in­bred sin will break;

Elijah’s God is liv­ing.

Elijah’s God still lives to­day

And an­swers still by pow­er

As when Eli­jah prayed for rain

God an­swered with a show­er.

If you would have your soul re­freshed

With rain that falls from Heav­en

You must pray through like all the rest

And show­ers shall be giv­en.
