SAVE US OH GOD
G C G C
We confess, the sins of our nation
G C Am7 D
And Lord we are guilty, of a prayerless life
G C G C
We've turned away, our hearts from your laws
G C
And have taken for granted,
Am7 D
Your unchanging grace.
Turn away, this curse from our country,
We say that we've robbed you
And our storehouses are bare,
Open wide, the floodgates of heaven,
Rebuke the devourer,
So we may not be destroyed.
