Sun calls from eastern sky: With gladsome song, arise!
The healing rays of Christ the Sun awaken and revive;
As dew, descends His grace; my cold heart melts apace;
The shining of His loving face all idols dissipates.

In Him, keep deep’ning our roots; life blossoms, sends forth shoots;
Each morn, we rise, gain manna new, His word afresh pursue.
We offer ceaseless prayer, as simple lilies fair;
New wine and olive oil we bear, Christ’s glory to declare.

The Lord will surely restore the locust-eaten years;
By resurrection’s mighty pow’r, all failure disappears.
Appearing constantly, our Songs of Steps* He leads;
No care for earthly fame have we; we share God’s history.

Our worthless house of straw we build in vain no more;
We gather wood in one accord His dwelling to restore;
Clean homes, fling wide the doors; greet sinners from all shores;
Bring in the sheaves with shouts of joy, the flock lead to the Lord.

Revival’s law operates in cycles, night and day;
Rise, preach always, in every place, till earth resounds with praise.
The corp’rate God-man life, it’s heaven’s life on earth;
Oh, keep us, Lord, at every time still fresh till Your return.

(Note: Songs of Steps is another name for the Songs of Ascents in the Psalms.)

What a vibrant, wonderful, enlivening, and enjoyable hymn. Oh, keep us, Lord at every time still fresh till Your return. Amen!

Amen! Fling open doors, clean homes, clean hearts, there's nothing more to do than this -- "bring wood" until we're through.

New dawn draws nesr, revival's here, I consecrate afresh today, by your life renewed, o'ercoming, till we see your fear face. What a marvelous hymn and it was the hymn writers experience. May it be ours as well.
