National Day of Prayer

I really love the song "Heal Our Land" by Michael Card written for the National Day of Prayer quite a few years ago. And how much more appropriate it is today as our great nation has strayed even further away from our Christian heritage than ever.




Heal Our Land
by Michael Card
Forgive oh Lord - and heal our land
And give us eyes to seek your face - and hearts to understand
That you alone - make all things new
And the blessing of the land we love - are really gifts from you
Refrain:
If my people - Will humbly pray
And seek my face and turn away - From all their wicked ways
Then I will hear them - And move my hand
And freely then will I forgive - and I will heal their land.
Unite our hearts - in one accord
And make us hungry for your peace - and burdened for the poor
And grant us hope - that we might see
The future for the land we love - our life, our liberty
Refrain:
If my people - Will humbly pray
And seek my face and turn away - From all their wicked ways
Then I will hear them - And move my hand
And freely then will I forgive - And I will heal their land
And I will heal their land
Heal their land
