Rouse Us to be Zealous

At Joppa died the dear one there,
Who lived in want and meekness;
She had a loving heart and cared
For needy ones in weakness.
And many tears of grief did fall,
Till Peter sent by God did call,
O Tabitha, arise! O Tabitha, arise!

O that the Lord in this our time
Would send a Peter to us,
That he with heaven's joy sublime
Would rouse us to be zealous.
O God, from Heaven strengthen us,
Revive Thy church with mightiness!
O Tabitha, arise! O Tabitha, arise!
