Lyrics
DESIRE OF THE NATIONS
(TURN THE HEARTS)
2 Chronicles 7:14; Psalm 43:3; Haggai 2:7; Malachi 4:6; Matthew 26:41; John 20:22
Turn the hearts of the fathers to the hearts of the children
And turn the hearts of the children to the hearts of the fathers…
(repeat)
Our Father reveal Your truth
We call out to You
Our hearts are longing to see You move
We call out to You
We’re watching, we’re praying, we’re seeking Your face
We’re watching, we’re praying, we’re waiting
And we are crying...
Come Lord, Desire of the Nations
Reach down, bring healing to our land
Come and mend, these broken generations
And breathe into Your Church again
Your cross has made us sons and daughters of truth
We call out to You
Our dream is to see this nation turning back to You
We call out to You
Your fire is burning, the tables are turning
Your Church is arising! And we are crying...
Come Lord, Desire of the Nations
Reach down, bring healing to our land
Come and mend, these broken generations
And breathe into Your Church again
And breathe into Your Church again
Turn the hearts of the fathers to the hearts of the children
And turn the hearts of the children to the hearts of the fathers…
(repeat)
