O Lord, Thy work revive

Hymnal: BW1870 #205 (1870) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O Lord, Thy work revive In Zion’s gloomy hour; And make our dying graces live By Thy restoring power. 2 Oh, let thy chosen few Awake to earnest prayer; Their solemn vows again renew, And walk in filial fear. 3 Thy Spirit then will speak Through lips of humble clay, Till hearts of adamant shall break, Till rebels shall obey. 4 Now lend Thy gracious ear, Now listen to our cry; Oh, come, and bring salvation near! Our souls on Thee rely. Topics: Church prayer for revival of; Revival Languages: English

Saviour, visit Thy plantation

Hymnal: BW1870 #206 (1870) Lyrics: 1 Saviour, visit Thy plantation, Grant us, Lord, a gracious rain! All will come to dissolution, Unless Thou return again: 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 Thine assistance, Ev'ry plant should droop and die: Lord, revive us; All our help must come from Thee! 3 Dearest Saviour, hasten hither, Thou canst make them bloom again! Oh, permit them not to wither, Let not all our hopes be vain!

Blest Jesus! come Thou gently down

Hymnal: BW1870 #207 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Blest Jesus! come Thou gently down, And fill this hallow'd place: Oh, make Thy glorious goings known, Diffuse around Thy grace! 2 Shine, dearest Lord, from realms of day, Disperse the gloom of night; Chase all our clouds and doubts away, And turn the shades to light. 3 Behold, and pity from above, Our cold and languid frame; Oh, shed abroad Thy quick'ning love, And glorify Thy name. 4 All-glorious Saviour, source of grace, To Thee we raise our cry: Unveil the beauties of Thy face To ev'ry waiting eye. 5 Revive, O God, desponding saints, Who languish, droop, and sigh: Refresh the soul that tires and faints, Fill mourning hearts with joy.

On the mountain's top appearing

Hymnal: BW1870 #208 (1870) Lyrics: 1 On the mountain's top appearing, Lo! the sacred herald stands, Welcome news to Zion bearing, Zion, long in hostile lands: Mourning captive! God himself shall loose thy bands, 2 Has thy night been long and mournful? Have thy friends unfaithful proved? Have thy foes been proud and scornful, By thy sighs and tears unmoved? Cease thy mourning; Zion still is well beloved. 3 God, thy God, will now restore thee; He Himself appears thy Friend; All thy foes shall flee before thee; Here their boasts and triumphs end: Great deliv'rance Zion's King vouchsafes to send. 4 Enemies no more shall trouble; All thy wrongs shall be redress'd; For thy shame thou shalt have double, In thy Maker's favor blest: All thy conflicts End in everlasting rest!

Lord, I am Thine, entirely Thine

Hymnal: BW1870 #209 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Lord, I am Thine, entirely Thine, Purchased and saved by blood divine; With full consent Thine I would be, And own Thy sov'reign right in me. 2 Here, Lord, my life, my soul, my all, I yield to Thee beyond recall; Accept Thine own, so long withheld, Accept what I so freely yield! 3 Grant one poor sinner more a place Among the children of Thy grace; A wretched sinner lost to God, But ransom'd by Immanuel's blood. 4 Thine would I live, Thine would I die, Be Thine through all eternity: The vow is past beyond repeal; Now will I set the solemn seal. 5 Do Thou assist a feeble worm The great engagement to perform; thy grace assistance can extend, And on that grace I will depend.

People of the living God

Hymnal: BW1870 #212 (1870) Lyrics: 1 People of the living God, I have sought the world around, Paths of sin and sorrow trod, Peace and comfort nowhere found. 2 Now to you my spirit turns, Turns a fugitive unblest; Brethren, where your altar burns, Oh, receive me into rest! 3 Lonely I no longer roam, Like the cloud, the wind, the wave; Where you dwell shall be my home, Where you die shall be my grave. 4 Mine the God whom you adore; Your Redeemer shall be mine; Earth can fill my heart no more, Ev'ry idol I resign.
