I hear the voice of one calling, prepare ye the way of the Lord
And make His paths straight in the wilderness
And let your light shine in the darkness
And let your rain fall in the desert

As 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

I can hear that thunder in the distance
Like a train on the edge of 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 father's daughter, every mother's son
I feel it in my spirit, feel it in my bones
You're going to send revival, bring them all back home
I can hear that thunder in the distance
Like a train on the edge of town
I can feel the brooding of Your Spirit
"Lay your burdens down, Lay your burdens down"

Revive us, Revive us
Revive us with your fire!
