Lyrics

Verse 1 Beauty for brokenness, hope for despair Lord in the suffering, this is our prayer Bread for the children, justice, joy, peace Sunrise to sunset, Your kingdom increase Verse 2 Shelter for fragile lives, cures for their ills Work for the craftsmen, trade for their skills Land for the dispossessed, rights for the weak Voices to plead the cause, of those who can't speak Chorus 1 God of the poor, friend of the weak Give us compassion we pray Melt our cold hearts, let tears fall like rain Come change our love, from a spark to a flame Verse 3 Refuge from cruel wars, havens from fear Cities for sanctuary, freedoms to share Peace to the killing fields, scorched earth to green Christ for the bitterness, His cross for the pain Chorus 2 God of the poor, friend of the weak Give us compassion we pray Melt our cold hearts, let tears fall like rain Come change our love, from a spark to a flame Verse 4 Rest for the ravaged earth, oceans and streams Plundered and poisoned, our future our dreams Lord end our madness, carelessness, greed Make us content with the things that we need Verse 5 Lighten our darkness, breathe on this flame Until Your justice burns brightly again Until the nations learn of Your ways Seek Your salvation, and bring You their praise Chorus 3 God of the poor, friend of the weak Give us compassion we pray Melt our cold hearts, let tears fall like rain Come change our love, from a spark to a flame...
