Come and heal this broken land
Come and wake our souls to beat again
To the rhythm
Of Your heart
Come unlock these barricades
Every temple we have falsely made
Come and save us
From the wars we rage in Your name
In the ruins
There will be singing
In the ruins
There will be healing
When the walls fall down
And the church bells cease to ring
Come and heal this sick disease
Come and break this cage of apathy
Forgive us
For we know not what we do
Resurrect these white washed tombs
Every stained glass lie fill it with truth
Save us from the idols
We build in Your name
Daniel Bashta, Jason Morant
