JESUS YOU ARE HERE WITH US
Our hearts are being stirred
Spirit intercede for us
With groans too deep for words
And teach us how to pray
Could we be a prayerful people?
Shake us up today, Lord
We’re calling out on our knees
Desperate for You to be
In our cities, in our streets
Lifted high for all to see
We won’t stay silent anymore
Won’t stay silent anymore
Holy Father, hear our cry, we’re knocking on Your door
Help us to persevere, You know we long for more
Oh! oh!, we won’t stay silent
