1.

There sweeps revival to holiness over the land,
And no man can stop its move;
For hearts burn with fire and unquenchable zeal,
Ignited from heav’n above.

Chorus:

/: Come join God’s victorious throng! :/
Revival to holiness sweeps o’er the land;
Come join God’s victorious throng!

2.

Although the forces of hell and of darkness rise up
To battle ’gainst Truth’s great throng,
They’ll ne’er overcome it and ne’er break it down,
For God is our leader strong!

3.

Behold, to town and to village revival now spreads,
And souls see their need and sin;
And faith for a conquering life they receive
To crush Satan’s pow’r within.

4.

Behold, they gather in Spirit of oneness and love,
With hearts that are pure and true.
They’re free from all bondage to people and names;
This work only God can do.

5.

Like cherubim, they advance with their swords all aflame
And spare not the work of man.
What Christ has created is greatest for them;
They’re strong, for they’re one in Him.

6.

They are the gath’ring of saints of which Daniel did write,
Who cleansed are in these last days.
Apart from the harlot they faithfully stand,
O’ercoming in all their ways.

7.

They’re kings and priests called to serve Him and hold His name high;
They’ll reign in eternity.
Like Jesus, they’re faithful to give up their will;
Their ranks soon complete will be.
