452. Revive thy work, O Lord

S.M.

Swabia:

Johann M. Spiess, 1745

Albert Midlane, 1858

Revive thy work, O Lord,

Thy mighty arm make bare;

Speak with the voice that wakes the dead

And make thy people hear.

Revive thy work, O Lord,

Disturb this sleep of death;

Quicken the smouldering embers now

By thine almighty breath.

Revive thy work, O Lord,

Create soul thirst for thee;

And hungering for the Bread of life,

O may our spirits be!

412

Revive thy work, O Lord,

Exalt thy precious Name;

And, by the Holy Ghost, our love

For thee and thine inflame.

Revive thy work, O Lord,

And give refreshing showers;

The glory shall be all thine own,

The blessing, Lord, be ours.

Amen.
