A Hymn: I Send the Promise of My Father Upon You
Singing and composing hymns and other songs have been part of my life since my teenage days
Composer’s Foreword
I am not good in notes, but from the local church trainings while in choir, I have come around with this hymn using another hymn. If you know the hymn beneath, then you can join me to sing this song unto the Lord.
The Great Physician Now Is Near (The Great Physician)
The Composed Song
1. Jesus comes and says unto them
He has only l’mited time
That he will use ‘ven in the world
For He returns to his father
Refrain/Chorus
Behold I send father’s promise to you
Tarry ye in Jerusalem
Until thou be endued with power
Even from heaven above
2. Do not let thine be troubled
And do not be sorrowful
‘Cause it is expedient for you
For me to leave this very world
Refrain/Chorus
3. If I do not leave this odd world
The comforter will not come
But when I leave this very world
The comforter ‘ll come to you
Refrain/Chorus
4. This is the Spirit of my Father
And the Spirit working in Me
This Spirit I am going to send
That he ‘ll be living with Thee
Refrain/Chorus
5. And when he yea the Holy Ghost
Has also entered thine heart
He ‘ll tell you also of the sin
The righteousness and of judgment
Refrain/Chorus
6. Many things have I to also say
Unto Thee my beloved ones
But thou won’t be able to bear them
If there’s no Holy Ghost in you
Refrain/Chorus
7. But when the Spirit has arrived
Yea even Spirit of Truth
He will guide you in all the ways
Yea all the ways of the Truth
Refrain/Chorus
8. The comforter will not even speak
Things concerning himself alone
But everything that he heareth
That’s what he ‘ll speak unto thee
Refrain/Chorus
9. He shall take of things that ‘re mine
And he ‘ll utter these to thee
Even those things that’s yet to come
He ‘ll also show you all those
Refrain/Chorus
10. Everytime the Holy Spirit
Will give glory unto me
A great joy he ‘ll also give you
The which would be indescribable
Refrain/Chorus
11. Wherefore tarry ye also for him
This promise of the Father
That ye shall be ‘ven powerful
In the Lord and in his might
Refrain/Chorus
12. Then thou shall be able to witness for me
Throughout all nations of the world
Also wonders and even signs
They will follow you around
Refrain/Chorus
