Revival

by Robin Mark



I hear the voice of one calling,
I hear the voice of one calling,
prepare ye, prepare ye the way of the Lord.

I hear the voice of one calling,
I hear the voice of one calling,
prepare ye, prepare ye the way of the Lord.

And make His paths straight, make His paths straight in
the wilderness
And let your light shine, let your light shine in the
darkness
And let your rain fall, let your rain fall in the desert.

I hear the voice of one calling,
I hear the voice of one calling,
prepare ye, prepare ye the way of the Lord.

(Pick up tempo, add soft drums & bass, maybe VERY soft
guitar, 
gradually build up to chorus)

 / / / / / / / / / / / / (as directed)

Sure as gold is precious and the honey sweet,
so You love this city and you love these streets.
Ev'ry child out playing by its own front door,
ev'ry baby laying on the bedroom floor.
Ev'ry dreamer dreaming in their dead-end job,
ev'ry driver driving through the rush-hour mob.
I feel it in my spirit, feel it in my bones,
You're gonna send revival, bring 'em all back home.

(Chorus)
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.

(verse 2)
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 vale of tears.
Ev'ry man and woman ev'ry old and young,
ev'ry father's daughter, ev'ry mother's son.
I feel it in my spirit, feel it in my bones,
You're gonna send revival, bring 'em all back home.

Repeat chorus

Revive us, revive us, revive us with Your fire.
Revive us, revive us, revive us with Your fire.



__________________________________________





The verses in this song are irregular, rhythmically
speaking.  Each 
line has a 2/4 measure before the last word that gives
the line a 
sort of "rushed" feeling.  Hence, the first line of
verse 1 counts 
out like this:

(4)     1    2  3        4       1 2   1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 etc.
Sure as gold is precious and the honey sweet

The chorus and the "revive us" section are all in
straight 4/4.

The intro below is very freeform, with nothing but
sustained keyboard 
in background.  On the album, he has a flute doing some
nifty things 
between sets of lines, but it's all very subdued and
focused on the 
words.
