This City

This place is a wasteland
Nothing is pure
Guarded by Ravens
No hope can endure

Where has the rain gone?
where are the clouds?
There is no refreshment
No joy can resound

Can you hear the cries
of the beggars in the street?
Their worries on drink
No faith, love, or peace

What is this desert?
Is it too far gone?
Where drugs rule the streets
and fights rule the home.

What we need is an answer
A cure for the pain
A call for salvation
A relief from this bane.

Where are the workers?
The fields are in need
For sowing and harvest
Let's bring the redeemed

Jesus we're calling
upon your sweet name
please bring your forgiveness
You're mighty to save

Redeem this city
Bring love to it's streets
Healing to families
life eternally
