LORD TURN YOUR FOOTSTEPS
Towards these ruins.
We need You here,
We need You here.
Our homes are broken,
Our children stolen.
We need You here,
We need You here
Our God and King,
Ancient of days,
Alpha, Omega, Jesus, Saviour
Work Your deliverance in this place.
Yours is the night,
Yours is the day.
No-one is greater, come Lord save us.
Work Your deliverance in this place.
Lord turn Your footsteps
Towards these ruins.
We need You here,
We need You here, (in these)
Streets filled with darkness,
With children fatherless.
We need You here,
We need You here.
Godfrey Birtill
