Songs Of Zion – English

Revive thy work, O Lord,

by

1.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!
While here to Thee we bow;
Descend, O gracious Lord, descend!
Oh, come, and bless us now!

2.Revive thy work, O Lord,
Create soul-thirst for thee;
And hung’ring for the Bread of Life
O may our spirits be.

3.Revive thy work, O Lord,
Exalt thy precious Name;
And, by the Holy Ghost, our love
For thee and thine inflame.

4.Revive thy work, O Lord,
GIve power unto thy word;
Grant that Thy blessed Gospel may
In living faith be heard.

5.Revive thy work, O Lord,
And Give refreshing show’rs:
The glory shall be all thine own,
The blessing, Lord, be ours.

O Lord Jesus, how long, how long

by

1 It may be at morn, when the day is awaking,
When sunlight through darkness and shadow is breaking,
That Jesus will come in the fullness of glory,
To receive from the world His own.

Refrain:
O Lord Jesus, how long, how long
Ere we shout the glad song,
Christ returneth!
Hallelujah! hallelujah!
Amen, Hallelujah! Amen.

2 It may be at midday, it may be at twilight,
It may be, perchance, that the blackness of midnight
Will burst into light in the blaze of His glory,
When Jesus receives His own. [Refrain]

3 While hosts cry Hosanna, from heaven descending,
With glorified saints and the angels attending,
With grace on His brow, like a halo of glory,
Will Jesus receive His own. [Refrain]

4 O joy! O delight! should we go without dying,
No sickness, no sadness, no dread and no crying,
Caught up through the clouds with our Lord into glory,
When Jesus receives His own. [Refrain]
