Over the hilltops,
down from the skies,
Coming from glory—
lift up your eyes!
While we are watching,
and while we pray,
A mighty revival
is sweeping this way.
Sweeping this way,
yes, sweeping this way,
A mighty revival
is sweeping this way.
Keep on believing,
trust and obey;
A mighty revival
is sweeping this way.
As He has promised,
so shall it be:
Blessings from glory
on you and me—
Waters abundant,
floods to o’erflow.
A mighty revival
is coming, I know.
Sweeping this way,
yes, sweeping this way,
A mighty revival
is sweeping this way.
Keep on believing,
trust and obey;
A mighty revival
is sweeping this way.
Prophets have told it:
in the last days
Hearts shall be filled
with glorious praise;
Our sons and daughters,
both shall proclaim
The news of redemption
thro’ His great Name.
Sweeping this way,
yes, sweeping this way,
A mighty revival
is sweeping this way.
Keep on believing,
trust and obey;
A mighty revival
is sweeping this way.
Tarry for power—
this is our need.
Patiently labor, sowing the seed.
Soon comes the harvest—
glorious day!
A mighty revival
is sweeping this way.
Sweeping this way,
yes, sweeping this way,
A mighty revival
is sweeping this way.
Keep on believing,
trust and obey;
A mighty revival
is sweeping this way.
