Lord Send Revival to America
Lord, Give Us AmericaLord, give us America
We ask for her by name
Lord, give us America
Light a fire, fan the flame
Send us out to harvest
The amber waves of grain
Lord, give us America
In Jesus’ holy name
Once a nation under God, so willing to obey
Guided and protected by Your hand
Now we’re like a wayward child who’s wandered far away
Won’t You save this lost and dying land?Lord, give us America
We ask for her by name
Lord, give us America
Light a fire, fan the flame
Send us out to harvest
The amber waves of grain
Lord, give us America
In Jesus’ holy nameFather You can heal this land where hearts have turned to stone
If we’ll only bow and humbly pray
For You’re the God that set us free and made this land our home
And You’re still the Lord of liberty today!Lord, give us America
We ask for her by name
Lord, give us America
Light a fire, fan the flame
Send us out to harvest
The amber waves of grain
Lord, give us America
In Jesus’ holy name

Chris Merkling & Joel Weldon HendricksonRevelation 2:4-5 says “You have forsaken your first love. Remember the height from which you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first.”Before what is called the Second Great Awakening (in the late 1850s), a prayer meeting was called in downtown New York. Within six months 10,000 businessmen were praying for revival, and within two years about 2,000,000 people were added to the churches.
“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land” (2 Chron. 7:14).
Real Revival is taking place, but not in America. It is happening in Korea, where the Church has grown from less than a million 25 years ago, to over 12 million today. And in Africa, where the Church is growing so fast that Muslims attack preachers and disrupt meetings to try to stop its progress. It is taking place in Central and South America, in China and Malaysia, but in America? No! There is no real Revival in America because Americans are not convinced they really need God.
2 Corinthians 7:9-10 KJV (9) Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye sorrowed to repentance: for ye were made sorry after a godly manner, that ye might receive damage by us in nothing. (10) For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
Revival can come to America. We must pour our hearts out to God in prayer for this nation.
Father God,
Please send a revival fire through America. Purify us Lord. Draw this nation back to you.
We ask this in Jesus Holy Name
Amen

Yes Send revival or come back soon Lord!!!
@Mighty_Men_of_Valor - even if He does return soon we should still pray for revival. Think of all the lost souls out there needing the Lord.
Think if He had returned 1 year/ 1 hour/ 1 minutes before you accepted Him as your Lord and Savior.
We need to tell people about the Lord. Our hearts need to be burdened for those lost souls.
@Kristenmomof3 - I am with you 100%. I am a evangelical Christian. I am doing what the Lord commanded me to do. And What God has called me to do. Preach the word!
Amen , lets keep crying out to God ! Father break our hearts with what breaks yours , give us a Holy hunger to spread Your Gospel across America and the world . Your will be done in Jesus name !
