There is only one who can heal our land. So my question to me and to you; have we been praying with the diligence we should? Jeremiah wept bitterly for his people, have we? Or have we grown too content with our own little lives to take the time to prayer for our President and for our Country? I bid you now with me on bended knee to pray fervently for God to heal our land.
HEAL OUR LAND
By Effie Darlene Barba
I heard the sounds of tears surround
As anguish did abound
Death, despair, the wretched sound
That rose from every side
I fell there on my knees, Dear God
In sin our earth doth trod
Unto You Lord we feign a nod
While drowning in our pride
I pleaded there to seek your face
And ask you show Your grace
Our shame Oh Lord you can erase
Though guilty we’ve been tried
I cried for all who walk this land
To turn and seek Your hand
On righteousness to take a stand
And in your Love abide
As I prayed, Your light revealed
The sin I must now yield
That first my heart must be healed
Of sin I had denied
I give to you my wretched heart
It’s sin I bid depart
Your righteousness to then impart
Your Spirit be my guide
Cleansed by your grace, now I plead
Once more to intercede
To cleanse our land of sin and greed
Our eyes to open wide
To see the truth, to You belong
Our praise and worship song
Teach us to know right and wrong
To lay our sin aside
Transform our hearts by your dear Grace
Teach us to seek your face
Heal our land by Your embrace
Let us be purified
