To See You
04:36
|
|
||
God of earth and time, music, beauty
God of every child: Christian, Muslim (citizen, immigrant)
Purify our minds, soften judgment
Bring us into light, open our eyes
To see You
Heal my heart of hate and fear
And restore me to your love

Peacemaker

We follow the Reconciler
We bear his name and give you what he gave to us
Peacemaker and healer
Jesus taught us and leads us in the world now
Peace

Hunger and Thirst
03:35
|
|
||
We don’t want another empty promise
We don’t want another campaign
We want every child to live and thrive
And peace and justice here to reign
We hunger, thirst for, justice
God of love, Jesus, help us

Call to Nonviolence
03:38
|
|
||
We withdraw our hands, from things that destroy, systems that oppress, from selfishness / We will walk the earth in nonviolence, the strength of peace and trust, imagination / Lifting up your love, transforming our lives / Walking in the dreams of God
Las manos retiramos, de cosas que destruyen, las sistemas que oprimen, de la avaricia / Andaremos por la tierra en la noviolencia, en la fuerza de la paz y la imaginación / Levantando tu amor, transformándo nuestras vidas / Caminamos en los sueños de Dios

People Come Together

|

People come together, come together right now
Fear won’t find us when we know we’re a family
Your Spirit will be filled in the dreams of God

Border Watcher

Border Watcher
They told me, sit on this mountain and look over there
A sprawling story in the desert with lights barely seen
Everyone wants to cross over in the night
So watch the border and make sure they stay their side
Watch the border and make sure they stay there side
Moonlit smog makes El Paso glow like a snow
Juarez wraps around it, hoping for a sip of Gold
A dirty war rages and everyday people die
So watch the border and make sure they stay their side
Watch the border and make sure they stay there side
I’ve read stories about great walls before
They never helped with peace but always marked the wars
And even this wall, built in steel cemented so deep
I know will fall when the Truth is revealed and seen

Mercy Blessed
01:32
|
|
||
Only goodness flows from God
Forgiving debt and redeeming wrongs
This is why we stand in love
Blessed is God’s mercy

Sunrise
02:51

|
||
Sunrise
The sun rises for me to be peace
Peace breaks the fear
And it is for all
So everyone can know
It is for all
A way of peace and love
Jesus
He is a way of peace and love
He is a home for every refugee
A place to rest when we are running away
He washes us when our eyes have seen death
He is our love when we have none left to give
|

War Song
06:43
|
|
||
The only war song I know to call out of my throat
Is a cry for the dying
The only war song to sing with stomach turning
Is a cry for the dying
Let those who sow in tears reap peace
|

Nazina
04:26
|
|
||
You have come at a time we are hungry
You have come after many wars
There are no tears left to cry
We are thirsty
Your name and ours is Nothing
But you came and you saw us breathing
You came and helped me stand
My name is Love and Life
Not Nazina
But I will forget without you
|

Do Not Be Afraid
03:45
|
|
||
Do not be afraid to stand with the weak
You are strong in Peace
A flower piercing concrete
Do not be afraid to speak a word of Love
It is healing in the world
Forgiveness breaks a war
Do not be afraid
Trust, it makes the darkness go
Oh, the light will rise…

Su Gran Amor
05:18
|
|
||
Yo he quedado como una vasija hecha pedazos
El dolor esta acabando con mis ojos
Con me alma y con mi cuerpo
Pero yo lo ví, su gran amor por mi
Seré transformada desde este momento, a partir de ahora
