Heal This Land

Heavenly places we seek to find
Here lies a desert
With spirits running dry
It's braver to listen
Open our hearts
With our history and fame
It is clear who's to blame

You calm the waters
Called on the storms to die
With faith how we look to the sky
Our nation's built from the same rock not the sand
O Lord You can heal this land

Honour and glory tied up in chains
Blind to the future that keeps us in pain
Let's change our armour
For words of love
With His spirit as our sword
Fill our hearts with trust my Lord

You calm the waters
Called on the storms to die
With faith how we look to the sky
Our nation's built from the same rock not the sand
O Lord You can heal this land

Wonderful children destined to be
Climbing in darkness
Ashamed for you and me
Prayers can be answered
Let's move mountains high
God we reach for ancient skies
Let our faith never die

You calm the waters
Called on the storms to die
With faith how we look to the sky
Our nation's built from the same rock not the sand
O Lord You can heal this land
