Revival
Robin Mark Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Prepare ye, prepare ye the way of the Lord
I hear the voice of one crying
I hear the voice of one crying
Prepare ye, prepare ye the way of the Lord
Make his paths straight
Make his paths straight in the wilderness
Let his light shine
Let your rain fall
Let your rain fall in it's desert
I hear the voice of one crying
I hear the voice of one crying
Prepare ye, prepare ye the way of the Lord
Sure as gold is precious and the honey sweet
So you love this city and you love these streets
Every child out playing by their own front door
Every baby laying on the bedroom floor
Every dreamer dreaming in her dead-end job
Every driver driving through the rush hour mob
I feel it in my spirit, feel it in my bones
You're going to send revival, bring them all back home
For I can hear that thunder in the distance
Like a train on the edge of the town
I can feel the brooding of Your Spirit
"Lay your burdens down, lay your burdens down"
From the preacher preaching when the well is dry
To the lost soul reaching for a higher high
From the young man working through his hopes and fears
To the widow walking through the veil of tears
Every man and woman, every old and young
Every fathers daughter, every mothers son
I feel it in my spirit, feel it in my bones
You're going to send revival, bring them all back home
Oh, I can hear that thunder in the distance
Like a train on the edge of the town
I can feel the brooding of Your Spirit
"Lay your burdens down, lay your burdens down"
Oh, revive us
Revive us
Revive us with your fire
Revive us
Revive us
Revive us with your fire
From the preacher preaching when the well is dry
To the lost soul reaching for a higher high
From the young man working through his hopes and fears
To the widow walking through the veil of tears
Every man and woman, every old and young
Every fathers daughter, every mothers son
I feel it in my spirit, feel it in my bones
You're going to send revival, bring them all back home
Oh, I can hear that thunder in the distance
Like a train on the edge of the town
I can feel the brooding of Your Spirit
"Lay your burdens down, lay your burdens down"
Oh, revive us
Revive us
Revive us with your fire
Revive us
Revive us
Revive us with your fire
Revive us
Revive us
Revive us with your fire

In 2020 the Lord put a fire in my heart, I sold everything I had in Brazil and came to Ireland, now we are in 2022 and I just arrived here in Dublin. I feel that the Lord is going to start a great revival on this earth, and it will not stop, it will take over the world.

You are absolutely correct Brestorm I have known of a ministry that has been hearing from God for many years and the Lord has shown us of this end times revival that is coming. I hear it will make every revival in the past seem like a walk in the park because in the last days God will pour out his spirit upon his true people like he never has in the latter rain promised. Keep seeking him and get ready it is soon coming even though great troubles will be upon us also.

The BEST worship album ever!! I first heard it in an all girls rehabilitation centre in Wales in 2000. My friend and I used to play it over and over again. We would wait until the staff member went out of the room so we could blast it out. Very good memories and got me through 14months of tough times. Absolutely love this. We are both still free from addiction and going strong. Praise the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus!!! And Thankyou for this wonderful CD. I still have it 17years later. ❤
