The Cyber Hymnal ‎#1600

1600. For a Worldwide Revival

1. For a worldwide revival,
Blessèd Master, we pray.
Let the pow’r of the Highest
Be upon us today;
For this world, dearly purchased
By the blood of God’s Son,
Back from Satan’s dominion
And from sin must be won.

Refrain
Send the power, O Lord,
Send the power, O Lord.
Send the Holy Ghost power;
Let it now be outpoured.
Send it surging and sweeping
Like the waves of the sea.
Send a worldwide revival,
And begin it in me.

2. Send the showers of blessing,
As declared in Thy Word,
Let the Spirit of promise
On all flesh be outpoured;
Send the latter rain on us,
Till the land overflows,
Till the desert, rejoicing,
Blossoms forth as the rose. [Refrain]

3. There’s a sound of a going
In the mulberry trees,
News of nations awaking
Borne upon ev’ry breeze;
For the prayers of His children,
God in mercy doth own.
The revival’s beginning,
And the power’s coming down. [Refrain]
