Lyrics

You hear the cries of our hearts 
The longing of our souls 
Have mercy on us we pray 
For we are poor and needy

Teach us Your life giving ways 
And make in us Your heart 
That we might first think of You 
For we are called Your people

The Lord is forgiving and good 
Abounding in love
And slow to anger
The Lord He is gracious and kind 
His faithfulness overspilling our lives 
And great is His compassion

You rise above all other lures 
No higher pulls our hearts 
All peoples will gather in praise 
For marvelous You are

Abounding love 
Spilled out for us
The Son of God is given 
And on that tree 
Love’s gift you bleed 
The Father’s heart wide open
