322. Saviour! Visit Thy Plantation

1 Saviour! visit thy plantation;
Grant us, Lord, a gracious rain;
All will come to desolation,
Unless thou return again.

Chorus:
Lord revive us, Lord revive us,
All our help must come from thee.

2 Keep no longer at a distance;
Shine upon us from on high,
Lest, for want of thy assistance,
Every plant should droop and die. [Chorus]

3 Let our mutual love be fervent,
Make us prevalent in prayers;
Let each one esteemed thy servant
Shun the world's enticing snares. [Chorus]

4 Break the tempter's fatal power:
Turn the stony heart to flesh,
And begin from this good hour,
To revive thy work afresh. [Chorus]
