A World Revival · 7 March 2015
Praying Hands by Albrecht Dürer
This work is in the public domain.
I wonder what would happen if
The world had a big revival
If we thought about just pleasing God
Instead of mere survival
If we cared about our brothers’ souls
About our sisters’ needs
If we realized God was the One
Who brings crops when we plant seeds.
I wonder what would happen if
On Christ the Rock we stood
If we learned to preach the gospel
In every neighborhood
If we understood the power of
This great big God we serve
If when we heard the Master’s call to go
We followed with great verve.
I wonder what would happen if
We all to self have died
If in all we said and all we did
God was glorified
If to all we spread the good news
Without a moment’s hesitation
If we went to every people
Every tongue and nation.
I wonder what would happen if
The world had a big revival
If we realized that pleasing God
Was His plan for our survival
If we understood He calls us all to preach
To our sister and to our brother
About the Son He sent to say,
“Love God. And love each other.”
