New Heavens and A New Earth

As your people cry and children wail,
Of hunger, death, and life’s dark tales,
For their rescue now, we ask you go,
Relieve their storms of grief and woe.

Protect them in the midst of war,
Shield them from foul nature’s roar,
If thirst or illness test their faith,
Give them hope in spirit safe.

We lift them up in thankful hands,
O’er stars and moons, ‘cross glistening sand,
Top mountain’s snow and wind scored rock,
Grant them all discerning watch.

To ease their pains, our prayers be heard,
Your Spirit whisper Gospel words,
Grant them strength to long endure,
And join us there with Jesus pure.
