REVIVE US, DEAREST
JESUS ll
My Prayer for Revival in America
The morning sun is streaming in as I prepare to pray
recalling what my pastor said in his word to us one day.
He spoke of the time we live in and of people losing
faith,
of disregard for God’s Holy Word, and an increase in
hate.
Many churches are closing or the Gospel gets watered
down,
there’s disrespect for spiritual things and God is made a
clown.
My pastor said he’s burdened; therefore he’s asking us to
pray
for a nationwide revival; hope for all who’ve gone
astray.
Oh, my dear Lord Jesus, You were born to save us, this I
know,
and by Your death upon the Cross, You conquered the evil
foe.
I know Your desire is that none be lost, that’s my
desire, too,
therefore, I am humbly on my knees and crying out to You,
to reveal to all who know You, Lord, the need to repent.
Point us back to Your Holy Cross and why Your Blood was
spent.
America must turn back to You, and live our lives Your
way.
Oh! Let there be revival here. Let us see it in our day!
We must have sorrow for our sins, and confess those sins
to You.
We need to call upon Your Name, and then be Born Anew.
Through Your amazing grace and love, there’ll be splendors
in store
and by Your Resurrection, we will have life forevermore!
May multitudes flock unto You, countless as grains of
sand.
May churches fill up with faithful folks all across our
land.
May dusty Bibles be opened and
hearts abound with love.
Lord, I’m sending my morning
prayer, straight to Your throne above.
O Savior, You are worthy to
receive our honor and praise.
Draw the backsliders; draw the
lost, to walk in all Your ways—
Revive! Revive us, Jesus! I
long to see what You will do
in answer to this earnest
prayer…all glory belongs to You!
