Hymnal: The Book of Worship #119 (1867) First Line: Saviour, visit Thy plantation Lyrics: 1 Savior, visit Thy plantation, Grant us Lord, a gracious rain! All will come to dissolution, Unless Thou return again: Lord, revive us, All our help must come from Thee! 2 Surely, once Thy garden flourished, Every part looked gay and green: Then Thy word our spirits nourished-- Happy seasons we have seen! Lord, revive us, All our help must come from Thee! 3 But a drought has since succeeded, And a sad decline we see; Lord, Thy help is greatly needed-- Help can only come from Thee. Lord, revive us, All our help must come from Thee! 4 Some in whom our souls delighted We shall meet no more below; Some alas! we fear are blighted, Scarce a single leaf they show. Lord, revive us, All our help must come from Thee! 5 Dearest Saviour, hasten hither, Thou canst make them bloom again! Oh permit them not to wither, Let not all our hopes be vain. Lord, revive us, All our help must come from Thee! 6 Let our mutual love be fervent; Make us prevalent in prayers; Let each one, esteem Thy servant, Shun the world's bewitching snare. Lord, revive us, All our help must come from Thee! 7 Break the tempter's fatal power; Turn the stony hearts to flesh; And begin from this good hour To revive Thy work afresh. Lord, revive us, All our help must come from Thee! Topics: The Church Vicissitudes Languages: English
