Lyrics
Verse 1
Many came for freedom, many fought for faith
Many came because they saw the hand of God's own grace
Many came with nothing but dreams upon their face
Many came because they found a refuge in this place
Somewhere we lost sight of You and the guidance of Your hand
We have sacrificed our faith in God for the selfishness of man
Chorus 1
God, shed Your grace on us
Restore our hope, rebuild our trust
Pour out Your grace and mercy on this land
God, shed Your grace on us
With all that You call good and just
By Your amazing grace, Lord, help us to stand
God shed Your grace upon this land
Verse 2
Built on one foundation, one freedom for all man
One freedom bought and paid for by one sacrifice for all
Holy God we seek your face and the guidance of your hand
For without your grace and mercy Lord how will this nation stand
One people made of many with one common place to stand
One man for one woman one nation under God
Now we do not seek Your face or the guidance of Your hand
But without Your grace and mercy Lord how will this nation stand
Chorus 2
God, shed Your grace on us
Restore our hope, rebuild our trust
Pour out Your grace and mercy on this land
God, shed Your grace on us
With all that You call good and just
By Your amazing grace, Lord, help us to stand
God shed Your grace upon this land
Bridge
In our time of need, Lord we fall humbly on our face
Lord we cry for mercy We cry pour out Your grace
Chorus 3
God, shed Your grace on us
Restore our hope, rebuild our trust
Pour out Your grace and mercy on this land
God, shed Your grace on us
With all that You call good and just
By Your amazing grace, Lord, help us to stand
God shed Your grace upon this land
God shed Your grace upon this land
