Hear us O Lord - Your Mercy is Great

“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” - 2 Chronicles 7:14

Hear Us From Heaven

By Jared Anderson

Lord, hear our cry
Come heal our land
Breath life into these dry and thirsty souls
Lord, hear our prayer
Forgive our sin
And as we call on Your name
Would You make this a place
For Your glory to dwell

Chorus:
Open the blind eyes
Unlock the deaf ears
Come to Your people
As we draw near
Hear us from heaven
Touch our generation
We are Your people
Crying out in desperation

For those of you who are friends of mine on Facebook, you know I love when music lyrics closely follow scripture.  The song “Hear Us From Heaven” by Jared Anderson so closely matches the sentiment found in 2 Chronicles 7:14.  These are reminders that we need to pray for our nation, leaders, and people.  Tomorrow is the National Day of Prayer.  May we all stop and say a prayer for our Country.  May the Lord hear our cries and heal our land and our souls.
