一 後是膏油先是血，要得滋潤先得潔；
若非經過各各他，必不能到五旬節，
我們若未蒙洗淨，能力必不從上傾；
我們若要作見証，必須釘死己生命。
（副）因此；求主藉十字架，
治死我的魂生命；
使我願出重大代價，來滿受祢的聖靈。
二 先是用杖擊石磐，後來活水纔溢漫；
死亡若未作過工，聖靈必定不充滿。
我們若真同主死，願意萬有都損失；
主的能力要降臨，使用我們來救世。
三 先是祭壇後是火，若沒喪失就沒果；
若非所有先奉獻，必定不能登寶座。
我們若真肯犧牲，捨棄萬事降服神；
我們必定得能力，因主信托順從人。
四 先是豫備瓶子空，後是膏油盛其中；
先是山谷挖成溝，後來活水纔深泓；
先是經過約但河，後是靈感加倍得；
先受死亡的浸洗，後得榮耀的聖鴿。
五 當你舉目望禾田，金穀豐盈你稱羡；
當念果實未生時，就有麥種死在先。
若要生命的子粒，須有死亡的經歷；
凡未到過髑髏地，就無聖靈的能力。
六 既是這漾，求我主，使我忠誠走窄路；
除去雄心和自負，只顧順服並受苦。
更大能力我不取，更深的死我所需；
但願加畧的意義，完全成功在我軀。
1. First the blood, then anointing oil;
Cleansing, then can blessing flow,
Without passing through Calvary,
Pentecost we'll never know.
Without purging of the soul,
Pow'r from on high cannot flow.
If true witnesses we would be,
Self-life to the cross must go.
Refrain
Work in me, Lord - work thro' the cross
That my soul-life deceased be.
Whate'er the price, I would receive
Thy Spirit's fullness in me.
2. Christ, the Rock must be smitten first,
Then the living waters flow.
If death has not performed its work,
Then the Spirit ne'er can flow.
If we truly died with Christ,
Counting all things to be loss,
Then God's power will surely come
Down upon us in due course.
3. First the altar, and then the fire;
Without loss, there is no gain.
If we fail to surrender all,
We will never with Him reign.
If our all we yield to God -
A true sacrifice to make,
God will surely entrust these ones
Of His power to partake.
4. First, the vessel must emptied be,
Then the oil can it contain.
First, the ditches must be dug out,
Then much water will remain.
First, the Jordan must be passed,
Double portion then bestowed.
First the baptism, then the dove;
First the death, then life be showed.
5. When we look at the harvest field -
How the golden grains abound,
We should know how a grain of wheat
Had its death below the ground.
To obtain the grains of life,
There must be death's awesome hour.
Without going through Calvary,
There can be no Spirit's pow'r.
6. Since the truth is revealed, my Lord,
Help me go the narrow way.
Strip me of all my self and pride,
Suff'ring all, I would obey.
I pray not for greater pow'r -
Deeper death is all I need.
Let the full meaning of the cross
Be fulfilled in me, I plead.
