198. 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.

Chorus:
Revive thy work, O Lord,
And give refreshing showers;
The glory shall be all thine own,
The blessing shall be ours.

2 Revive thy work, O Lord,
Disturb this sleep of death;
Quicken the smould'ring embers now
By thine almighty breath. [Chorus]

3 Revive thy work, O Lord,
Create soul-thirst for thee;
And hung'ring for the bread of life,
Oh, may our spirits be! [Chorus]

4 Revive thy work, O Lord,
Exalt thy precious name;
And by the Holy Ghost our love
For thee and thine inflame. [Chorus]
