Give Reviving

1. Father for Thy, promised blessing,
Still we plead before Thy throne
For the times of, sweet refreshing,
Which can come from Thee alone
Blessed earnests, Thou hast given,
But in these we would not rest
Blessings still with, Thee are hidden,
Pour them forth and make us blest!

2. Prayer ascendeth to Thee ever,
Answer! Father, answer prayer
Bless oh bless each, weak endeavor,
Blood-bought pardon to declare
Wake Thy slumbering, children wake them,
Bid them to Thy harvest go
Blessings O our, Father make,
Round their steps let blessings flow

3. Let no people be forgotten,
Let Thy showers on all descend
That in one loud blessed anthem,
millions may in triumph blend
Give reviving, give refreshing,
Give the looked-for Jubilee
To Thyself may, crowds be pressing,
Bringing glory unto Thee

Tag: Give reviving, give refreshing,
Give the looked-for Jubilee
To Thyself may, crowds be pressing,
Bringing glory unto Thee

How to play

Here are Kevin's comments on how to play the opening guitar lick:

It is a Stevie Ray type double stop lick based on the blues scale. In E--the key on the record--play a half-bar with your 1st finger on the A and D strings at the 9th fret and hammer on the 3rd finger on the 11th fret on the A string. Then basically move the pattern over a string so you play a half bar with the first finger on the D and G strings at the 9th fret and hammer on the 3rd finger on the G string at the 11th fret and then play the 9th fret on the D and G strings again.

Then play a passing G# with the 3rd finger on the A string at the 11th fret. then play a 1/2 bar at the 7th fret on the E and A strings and a quick hammer with the 3rd finger on the E string at the 9th fret.
