lirik lagu stuart townend - for every child (kyrie)
for every child who lies
still beneath his mother’s eyes
she’s asking why a god of love
would give then take away
for every self-made man
doing everything he can
to fill the void that’s deep within
eating at his soul
oh have mercy…
have mercy on us all
for every wife who cries
when her husband’s lying eyes
give the sordid game away
and something dies within
for those who walk the street
dest-tute and desperate
we shake our heads and wash our hands
and hurry on our way
oh have mercy…
have mercy on us all
lord have mercy
lord have mercy
lord have mercy
have mercy on us all
lord have mercy
christ have mercy
lord have mercy
have mercy on us all
o god forgive us for the wrong that we have done
the night is filled with weeping and we’re aching for the dawn
o god of love this world has suffered for so long
have mercy on us all
we want to see the light we want to see the day
when hope is realised and hatred washed away
when justice rules the heart comp-ssion leads the way
have mercy on us all
forgive our driven need
to make a virtue out of greed
we’ve set our hearts on worldly things
that cannot satisfy
we’ve used tomorrow’s gold today
while nature chokes long the way
how many years before we pay?
perhaps we’re paying now…
lord have mercy
christ have mercy
lord have mercy
have mercy on us all
have mercy on us all
