135. Longing for Revival

1 O Thou Who the Shepherd of Israel art,
Give ear to our pray’r and Thy favor impart;
Thou Leader of Joseph, Thou Guide of his way,
’Mid cherubim dwelling, Thy glory display.

Refrain:
O Lord God of Hosts, us restore
to Thy grace, to Thy grace,
And then we shall live in the light,
We shall live in the light of Thy face.

2 Return, God of Hosts, O return unto Thine;
Look down from the heavens and visit this vine,
This vine which was planted by Thy mighty hand,
This branch for Thyself which Thou madest to stand. [Refrain]

5 No more shall we wander, delighting in shame;
Revive us, O Lord; we will call on Thy name.
O Lord God of Hosts, us restore to Thy grace,
And then we shall live in the light of Thy face. [Refrain]
