Note
A regular -s plural, and it counts instances: each revival is a separate event or period. That suits the religious uses well, such as meetings held to win converts or successive waves of awakening, and equally the renewed performance of an old play or the return of a fashion. When you mean the general state of being revived, the singular, used without an article, is usually the better choice.
