Aviva a Tua Igreja

“Aviva a Tua Igreja” by Arteniza Mello is a heartfelt plea for spiritual renewal and revival within the church and individual believers. The song opens with a call to God to revive His work and ignite a passionate flame within the hearts of His followers. The lyrics emphasize the need for the Holy Spirit to fill the singer's being, enabling them to speak of God's love and lead sinners to repentance. This sets the tone for a deep yearning for a renewed spiritual fervor and commitment to the faith.

The song continues by invoking the memory of the early disciples who were filled with the Holy Spirit and empowered to preach the gospel with boldness. This historical reference serves as a powerful metaphor for the kind of spiritual renewal the singer desires. The lyrics express a longing for the restoration of the 'first love'—the initial, passionate commitment to God that characterized the early Christian community. The singer asks for the same courage and power that the first disciples had, to spread the message of Jesus without fear or hesitation.

In the final verses, the song shifts focus to the present generation, calling for a revival that will fill hearts with love and dedication to God's work. The singer expresses a personal desire to be filled with God's power and to live a life that glorifies Him. The repeated plea for God to 'aviva' (revive) underscores the urgency and intensity of this spiritual quest. The song is both a personal prayer and a communal call to action, urging believers to seek a deeper, more vibrant relationship with God and to spread His love to others.
