Let us welcome each other, we people who gather, As followers of Jesus, all eager to show How best to recapture our Methodist rapture As we sing: O Lord, make us Alive, alive O! Chorus: Alive, alive O! Alive, alive O! Lord, make all your people Alive, alive O! Come, pastors and preachers; come stewards and teachers; And everyone working to help the Church grow In urbanised places and wide country space: Come and sing: O Lord, keep us Alive, alive O! Chorus If first love has faded, dejected or jaded We've lost our direction and don't want to know; If we think worship boring, lost the joy of adoring: Come and sing: O Lord, make us Alive, alive O! Chorus When, Lord, you are giving new life to the living, Redeeming the world from its folly and woe: Let us dare, with elation, to claim our salvation, As we sing: O Lord, make me Alive, alive O! Chorus
