REVIVE THE HEART

 For thus saith the high and lofty One that 

inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; 

I dwell in the high and holy place, with 

him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, 

to revive the spirit of the humble, and to 

revive the heart of the contrite ones.

For I will not contend for ever, neither will 

I be always wroth: for the spirit should fail 

before me, and the souls which I have made.

For the iniquity of his covetousness was 

I wroth, and smote him: I hid me, and was 

wroth, and he went on frowardly in the way 

of his heart. I have seen his ways, and will heal 

him: I will lead him also, and restore comforts 

unto him and to his mourners.  I create the 

fruit of the lips; Peace, peace to him that is far 

off, and to him that is near, saith the LORD; 

and I will heal him.  But the wicked are like 

the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose 

waters cast up mire and dirt.  There is no 

peace, saith my God, to the wicked.

Isaiah 57:15-21
