Give us the days as past: When true fear of sin, abiding; Penitential tears on altars cast; And men's Hearts, self-chiding!
Give us those reviving visit, When thy sky was torn opened: Fixed on earth's thy royal seat. Oh, let thy heaven again be reopened!
For Pentecostal flame, we cry— No tears for gold and fame; Give burnings, or we would die! Send revival fire for the sake of thy name!
Oh, let thy flaming, enriching Name run through the earth; Conquering thrones; reviving From sin, the grave, and death!
Burning heart, eyes seeing; Lips sharp, and thoughts divine, We pray, give to thy ministering Ones, who speak what's thine.
Give a taste of that glorious day, A day cloudless; eternal morning: Unmixed, and ever-beaming ray Engulfing that forever dawning!
Lord, for the sake of the just, Thy Christ, our Lord, and friend, Who for our sake kissed the dust, Grant that we see a glorious end!
Amen! Ojo'je Ad'eyi _________________ Ojoje Adeyi
