Fires of Revival

G C G
I came into the gathering of the people of the Lord
C D G D
And found my way among them to His Throne
G C G
I needed to return unto the altar of my God
C D G G7
To renew again my covenant with Him

C D Bm Em
And there I built an altar to His Name
C A D
And realise that my life would never be the same
G C
And then the fires of revival came sweeping
G
through my soul
C D G
And I touch the Holy Presence of my God

C D G
Come build an altar unto the Lord
Em A D
Return to worship and hear His Word
G C
And then the fires of revival will come sweeping
G
through your soul
C D G
And we’ll touch the Holy Presence of our God
G C G
I wanted to discover the first love we once had shared
C D G D
Rekindling the fire deep within
G C G
I found the lamp still flickering in the temple of my Lord
C D G G7
And pour a horn of oil unto the flame
