CPWI Hymnal ‎#342

342. Revive thy work, O Lord

1 Revive thy work, O Lord,
thy mighty arm make bare;
speak with the voice that wakes the dead,
and make thy people hear.

2 Revive thy work, O Lord,
disturb this sleep of death;
quicken the smouldering embers now
by thine almighty breath.

3 Revive thy work, O Lord,
create soul-thirst for thee;
and hungering for the bread of life
oh may our spirits be.

4 Revive thy work, O Lord,
exalt thy precious name;
and by the Holy Ghost, our love
for thee and thine inflame.

5 Revive thy work, O Lord,
give Pentecostal showers;
the glory shall be all thine own,
the blessing, Lord, be ours!
