He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.
–Matthew 3:11 (NKJV)–
If the Holy Spirit was withdrawn from the church today, 95 percent of what we do would go on and no one would know the difference. If the Holy Spirit had been withdrawn from the New Testament church, 95 percent of what they did would stop, and everybody would know the difference.
–A. W. Tozer–

Resurrection fall on us, resurrection roll over us
This is our reality to pursue Your hand
Righteousness, You arm us with Your strength
We come trembling from our struggles
Understand, discern the spirits
This is our quest to overtake enemies
To take back what’s already ours
Our conquest
Our conquest
Our conquest
Our conquest
Holy Spirit, take this land
And God please crush hate, overtake our hearts
Lord, let Your love pour down harder
So let Your love pour down harder
Let the rivers run wider
Let the winds carry further
Let the fire burn brighter
Spirit of Revival
