A World Wide Revival

Mrs. C. H. Morris • English

Primary Scripture: Acts 2:17

Verse 1

For a worldwide revival, Blessèd Master, we pray. Let the pow’r of the Highest Be upon us today; For this world, dearly purchased By the blood of God’s Son, Back from Satan’s dominion And from sin must be won.

Chorus

Send the power, O Lord, Send the power, O Lord. Send the Holy Ghost power; Let it now be outpoured. Send it surging and sweeping Like the waves of the sea. Send a worldwide revival, And begin it in me.

Verse 2

Send the showers of blessing, As declared in Thy Word, Let the Spirit of promise On all flesh be outpoured; Send the latter rain on us, Till the land overflows, Till the desert, rejoicing, Blossoms forth as the rose.

Chorus

Send the power, O Lord, Send the power, O Lord. Send the Holy Ghost power; Let it now be outpoured. Send it surging and sweeping Like the waves of the sea. Send a worldwide revival, And begin it in me.

Verse 3

There’s a sound of a going In the mulberry trees, News of nations awaking Borne upon ev’ry breeze; For the prayers of His children, God in mercy doth own. The revival’s beginning, And the power’s coming down.

Chorus

Send the power, O Lord, Send the power, O Lord. Send the Holy Ghost power; Let it now be outpoured. Send it surging and sweeping Like the waves of the sea. Send a worldwide revival, And begin it in me.
