1) Revival is… Read Full Bio ↴There are at least 3 groups known by the name Revival.
1) Revival is a Rochester NY-based old school Hardcore Punk outfit.
2) Revival is an alt. country band formed by Josh Read and Evan Berodt of Canyon and Jay Farrar's touring band.
Riding back in on the Horses of War, recent-dead tangles with Canyon and Jay Farrar pushed like bodies out the rear door of memory, these are men on a mission β to assume the aching on behalf of all us sad sinners, to alight in the night for a moon they know is reachable. Open spaces arenβt wide enough, high and lonesome not sparse enough, even the rain not wet enough, for the sea-weary longshoremen of Revival.
April 2006, springtime, something shimmering, fuck the winter, feel the grass. Smoke signals out to Noel White, just up the river, who returns them with an echoing of drums, and an album, tall and strong, is crafted. The experiment explodes into the full dark of day at the studio of J. Robbins, somewhere in the run-down industrial districts between Baltimore and Washington, DC.
Other players stop, strain ears to air, look to the sky, feel the rhythm as much as hear it, drop what theyβre doing, wander up the mountain to lend a hand, if only for a moment, a show, a song, a season. Mikal Evansβ harmonies dipping low as her hip-length mane, Hash Vyasβ loping bass lines as rock-solid as his hard-earned indie lineage, Brian Clancyβs four-string also on occasional loan from local legends Dawn of Man, Josh Wenkβs drums thundering through it all β Revival live and in the flesh is no less impressive.
At the hard human heart of it all, though, the songs of Josh Read. Steeped equally in the spirit of ancient folk, brawling saloon standards, DCβs postpunk revolutionaries, and the early vangard of psychedelic rock, Readβs songs are about the bones of America. Raw sexuality to desolate balladry, itβs all there β whispered on the wind, prospected from the psychic hills. That voice. The lonely troubadour. It bewitches you, lays you down soft, cracked and pleading, shoots you down hard in a shotgun barrage.
3) Revival - 'Music By Al Basim' was released in 1979. According to the legend Al Basim was an Iranian artist who was executed. In fact Al Basim was Bulgarian. An interesting ethnic fusion album...
4) Latvian Christian band Revival was founded in 2005, when its members decided to get together to worship and praise the Lord and share their experience of life with Jesus.
5) Revival is a Barbershop Quartet who competed in the 1998 International Barbershop Quartet Contest.
6) Revival is a youtube channel that posts the opening and closing music for the anime Boku Dake Ga Inai Machi. The channel is named after the main character in the anime's special ability, called Revival, where he is forced to travel back in time to prevent imminent disaster.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That bring these bones to their feet
In my soul be a fire
A passion writhing in me
Be a river in this valley
Quench the thirst of my longing
Make me whole again in Your love
Heal my heart of its breaking
Open up the floodgates
We want to see heaven
Heaven, Oh
Heaven, Oh
In the church be the song we sing
And every note bring You glory
With all of heaven and earth as one
We'll stand together rejoicing
Come have Your way
Open up the floodgates
We want to see heaven
Heaven, Oh
Heaven, Oh
Let Your spirit fall Bring Your kids in revival
We wanna see heaven
Heaven, Oh
Heaven, Oh
It's only by Your name that we come alive
Only by Your Son we can stand in Your light
We want everything You are
To fill us in our hearts
We'll see Heaven
Heaven
It's only by Your name that we come alive
Only by Your Son we can stand in Your light

The lyrics of "Revival" by Revival speak about the desire for a spiritual awakening and renewal. The song starts with the acknowledgment that the life-giving power of God resides within, giving strength and energy to the bones. The soul is described as a fire, a passionate force that moves within the individual. The prayer is for this fire to flow like a river in the valley, bringing refreshment and fulfillment to the longing heart. The lyrics express a longing to be whole again in God's love and for the healing of a broken heart.
The chorus, "Open up the floodgates, we want to see heaven," reflects the yearning for a divine outpouring, a visual manifestation of heaven breaking into the earthly realm. The idea is for the church to become a place where the song of worship brings glory to God, uniting heaven and earth in one voice of rejoicing. The desire is for divine intervention, for God's spirit to fall upon His children and ignite a revival. The repetition of "Heaven, Oh" emphasizes the longing and eagerness to experience the heavenly presence.
The bridge emphasizes that it is only through the name of God and through Jesus Christ that true life and light are found. The desire is for God to fill every aspect of their beings, to transform and revive their hearts completely. The lyrics express a genuine hunger for everything that God is, and a willingness to be filled with His presence.
