LYRICS

Lord, great and marvelous
Keeping Your covenant
Merciful God, we have sinned
Chosen iniquity, we have done wickedly
Heritage cast to the wind

​

Chorus: 

​

Promises broken, prophets ignored
All that You’ve spoken despised, oh Lord

​

Your temple lies in waste
Your people are disgraced
Turn now, for Your name’s sake
Not for our righteousness
But for Your righteousness
Because Your mercies are great!

​

Chorus

​

Oh Lord, hear!
Oh Lord, forgive!
Oh Lord, listen and act!

​

Promises broken, prophets ignored
Hear what I’ve spoken, forgive, oh Lord
