The lonely fire of hate We suffer our violence Surround the desert of pain Break through the silence When you speak The heavens open Mercy falls down like rain Caught in the downpour of peace Flood us with vision Not just a season of rain Heal all division When you speak The heavens open Mercy falls down like rain Tear my heart open wide Cure the poison of pride I'm letting go of anger Oh my everlasting Prince of Peace Tear my heart open wide Cure the poison of pride I'm letting go of anger Oh my everlasting Prince of Peace Tear my heart open wide Cure the poison of pride I'm letting go of anger Oh my everlasting Prince of Peace Tear my heart open wide We drown the hatred that kills Our brother our sister Teach us the weapon of grace Jesus our keeper When you speak The heavens open Mercy falls down like rain
