A Prayer for New Life
Commentators explain that the plea to "revive us" (or "quicken us") is a request for God to bring His people back to life spiritually. Albert Barnes compares it to the return of spring after a dead winter or rain after a long drought. It is a cry for God to restore spiritual vitality where there is deadness, decay, or desolation, whether in a nation, a church, or an individual's heart.
