Lyrics

Send a revival, O Christ, my Lord,
Let it go over the land and sea;
Send it according to Thy dear Word,
And let it begin in me.

Refrain

Lord, send a revival, Lord, send a revival;
Lord, send a revival, and let it begin in me.

Send a revival among Thine own,
Help us to turn from our sins away;
Let us draw near to the Father’s throne,
Revive us again, we pray.

Refrain

Send a revival to those in sin,
Help them, O Jesus, to turn to Thee;
Let them the new life in Thee begin,
Oh, give them the victory.

Refrain

Send a revival in every heart,
Draw the world nearer, O Lord, to Thee;
Let Thy salvation true joy impart,
And let it begin in me.
