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.

Refrain

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.

Refrain

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.

Refrain
