Revive Me
It doesn’t take a big old show,
It doesn’t take a tent.
It don’t take no big preachin’ man,
Nor one blessed cent
Just return to the God from whom
All life got a start.
All it takes, is the grace of God,
And a willing heart.
Chorus:
Lord revive me, Lord revive me.
My spirit’s dry, to You I cry, revive me.
This life I live, it’s just too big,
For my strength alone.
Sustain me with Your mighty hand,
Until you take me home.
There are things, that I’ve done,
Of which I feel ashamed.
Even if I had some help,
Lord I’m the one to blame.
But in Your Word I see, when You look at me,
You don’t see that at all.
When I accept Your sacrifice,
You made me white as snow.
Chorus
There are some things that I do
That don’t seem from above
Seems no matter what I meant
They just don’t show Your love
Maybe all the things, that I’ve lived through
Have all taken their toll.
Please give my heart a make over,
Oh, Lord please heal my soul.
Chorus

Thanks Arlene, Lara, JayKTX, and Valya. Wow! I'm being compared with Dylan! I'm speechless. He's a Christian you know, and put out 3 Christian albums before he got fed up with the Christian music industry.
The words are copy written, but the music wouldn't be. It is sooo easy to download a song file from the internet (even the ones that are supposed to be unavailable for download). All a person needs to copyright a song, is a copy of the song lyrics, a recording of the song, and $45. If I put any recordings of my songs up, I could end up having to pay someone else to play my own song.
I hope you do record the audio; we're going to be reminding you repeatedly. :)
Knowing me, praying that God works things out so that I record the songs will be much more effective =D |

| Great lyrics. I can't wait to hear it once you've gotten a copyright! I understand why you want that first, though... It's the same reason I don't post full versions of my songs - just excerpts... and I never post a recording. But I hope one day to listen to your songs! |

Thanks Janeice. It's a total gospel feel with hick country overtones.
Thanks Solemusiq. I don't know where God's going to take me with this music, but He'll give me the grace I need to flourish in every place He wants me to go. |

| Jess, this song is good. I like that you don't push rythm and forsake the weight of the lyrics. Too many try to ryhm too much and lose the depth of the song. Very good. |

|
| Thanks Patrick, I admit I take some liberties with rhyming. I'm not sure "all" and "snow" rhym, but it's close enough for me. =D |
