Nations have trespassed from your holy hill
Temples desecrated, streets filled with ill
Yet in this darkness we lift our plea
God of our salvation, come set us free
We are your people, and sheep of your pasture
We will give you thanks forever
They fed your servants to the birds of prey
They for once are mourning day by day
But in our sorrow we find our song
God of mercy, heal us, make us strong
Make us strong
We are your people, and sheep of your pasture
We will give you thanks forever
They fed your servants to the birds of prey
They for once are mourning day by day
But in our sorrow we find our song
God of mercy, heal us, make us strong
Make us strong
We are your people, and sheep of your pasture
We will give you thanks forever
The cries of the captives reach your ear
Remember not our sins, let your grace appear
For your name's sake, oh Lord
Reserve the faint God of our fathers
Listen to our prayers
We are your people, and sheep of your pasture
We will give you thanks forever
They fed your servants to the birds of prey
They for once are mourning day by day
But in our sorrow we find our song
God of mercy, heal us, make us strong
Make us strong
We are your people, and sheep of your pasture
We will give you thanks forever
The cries of the captives reach your ear
Remember not our sins, let your grace appear
For your name's sake, oh Lord
Reserve the faint God of our fathers
Listen to our prayers
We are your people, and sheep of your pasture
We will give you thanks forever
They fed your servants to the birds of prey
They for once are mourning day by day
But in our sorrow we find our song
God of mercy, heal us, make us strong
Make us strong
We are your people, and sheep of your pasture
We will give you thanks forever
For your name's sake, oh Lord
Reach your ear, remember not our sins
Let your grace appear
For your name's sake, oh Lord
Reserve the faint God of our fathers
Listen to our prayers
