Graham Kendrick - Arise - A Prayer for Peace Lyrics

You hear, O Lord
The desire of the afflicted
You hear, O Lord
You give them strength
And listen to their cry
You hear, O Lord
Defending the fatherless
And the oppressed
That they may live in fear no more

Arise Lord! Lift up your hand,
God of mercy save the helpless
Show your kindness
Arise O Lord! Reach out to save
Arise O God

Arise Lord! Lift up your hand,
God of mercy save the helpless
Show your kindness
Arise O Lord! Reach out to save
Arise O God
Arise O God
Hear our prayer
