The Prophet’s Prayer
O Lord, revive Your work in the midst of the years!
In the midst of the years make it known;
In wrath remember mercy.
The Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah
His glory covered the heavens,
And the earth was full of His praise.
He had rays flashing from His hand,
And there His power was hidden.
