Revive Your Work, O God

LYRICS

VERSE 1
Revive Your work, O God,
Disturb this sleep of death;
Provoke the smold’ring embers now
By Your almighty breath.
Revive Your work, O Lord,
Your mighty arm reveal;
Speak with the voice that wakes the dead,
And make Your people hear.

VERSE 2
Revive Your work, O God,
Advance the Word of Christ
And, by Your Holy Spirit’s power,
Cause saving faith to rise.
Revive Your work, O Lord,
Cause calloused hearts to yearn;
And, hungering for the Bread of Life,
To Life, the dead would come.

VERSE 3
Revive Your work, O God,
Send us, Your people, out
To share Your Word in every land
With faith and love and power.
Revive Your work, O Lord,
O help Your church to see
The harvest ripe and plentiful;
For You have blessed the seed.

VERSE 4
Revive Your work, O God,
Let hearts once dead rejoice;
Let songs and prayers in fullness flow
In praise to You, our Lord.
Revive Your work, O Lord,
And give refreshing showers;
The glory shall be all Your own,
The blessing, Lord, be ours.

TAG
The glory shall be all Your own,
The blessing, Lord, be ours.
