Move throughout this land
With a mighty hand,
May you reign from shore to shore;
And your enemies
Fall beneath Your feet
Once more.
And within Your Church
May we love You much,
May we glorify your Name;
Lord, move once more
As you’ve done before;
Come and visit our land once again.
For so many years
We have lived with tears,
We had borne the death and pain;
And blood has spilled,
And the graves have filled
Again,
And again.
And our children cry
Must it be this way?
Must we live forever bound?
Lord, break our chains,
Set us free again;
Only in You can an answer be found.
And the world looks on,
Shake their heads in scorn,
For they see no hope at all;
As we proudly parade
Another brick is laid
In the wall.
And the guilt is ours
And the shame is ours,
The suspicion, fear and hate;
We don’t hear Your call
‘Cause we know it all,
But we’re leaving it all much too late.
Move throughout this land
With a mighty hand,
May You reign from shore to shore;
And Your enemies
Fall beneath your feet
Once more.
And within your church
May we love You much,
May we glorify your Name;
Lord, move once more
As you’ve done before;
Come and visit our land once again.
