Now let us sing,

Now let us
Sing till the power of the Lord comes down!

Level of teaching speed/ difficulty (1 = very easy, 10 = very challenging)
Have not heard this song for 30 yrs.sinced I moved to ozz. I have been so blessed. Amidst one if the youghest times of my life.it has lifted me!!!,I m dancing in praise for Gods provision both physically and spiritual. . Heard it on thd radio, for such a time as this. (Sing till the power of the Lord comes down) thank you. !!!!!
God is truly close to the aged. Bless you too.
I remember adding verses of similar meter from other hymns, such as Amazing Grace, and this becoming the chorus.
Also, “Don’t be afraid” was how I recall it from back in the 1970s
I remember singing this song at school (1st grade) we had service every Wednesday and I have never forgotten the lyrics.
Great Song! Lyrics and Video do not match on “Be not afraid” – ” Don’t be afraid”,
