Come Heal This Land

Let the exile come let

The stranger come

Let the weary come find rest

All you homeless sons

All you widowed ones

All you poor and dispossessed

For a table waits in

Your Father’s house

There the meek can come and eat

There’s a place of rest

At your Father’s breast

Where His mercy is complete

 

Does a cry ring out

From abroken nation

From a people who

Have been brought low

Was pride in our hearts

Did we grieve Your spirit

Have we blocked the

Ancient wells that flowed

Here is our covenant prayer

Who call upon Your name

We humble ourselves before You

We humble ourselves

 

Come heal this land

Come heal this land

Come heal this land

Come heal this land

 

Do the tears of One Who gave

All things for us

Do they fall from Heaven

Still because of us

For we have tasted grace

And we have known Your mercy

But we have not shown

This grace to men

Here is our covenant prayer

Who call upon Your name

We humble ourselves before You

We humble ourselves

 

May this land we love

Be a place of safety

Be a light for all the nations

Of this earth

May Your streams of love

May they flow here freely

Here where every stranger

Finds a home

Here is our covenant prayer

Who call upon Your name

We humble ourselves before You

We humble ourselves

 

Come heal this land
