Beauty for brokeness
Hope for despair
For endless suffering
This is our prayer
Bread for the children
Justice joy peace
Sunrise to sunset
Your kingdom increase
Shelter for fragile life
Cure for their ills
Work for the craftmen
Trade for their skill
Land for the disposes
Right for the weak
Voices to plead the chord
Of those cant speak
God of the Poor
Friend of the weak
Give us compassion we pray
Melt our cold heart
And tears fall like rain
Come change our love from a
Spark to a flame
Refuge from cruel wars
Havens from fear
Cities for sanctuary
Freedom to share
Peace to the killing-fields
Scorched earth to green
Christ for the bitterness
His cross for the pain
God of the Poor
Friend of the weak
Give us compassion
We pray
Melt our cold heart
And tears fall like rain
Come change our love
From a spark to a flame
Rest for the ravaged Earth
Oceans and streams
Thunder and poisons
Our future, our dreams
Lord end our madness
Carelessness, greed
Make us content with
The things that we need
God of the Poor
Friend of the weak
Give us compassion we pray
Melt our cold heart
And tears fall like rain
Come change our love
From a spark to a flame
Lightens our darkness
Breathe on this flame
Until your justice burn Brightly again
Until the nations learn of your way
Seek your salvation
And bring you the praise
God of the Poor
Friend if the weak
Give us compassion we pray
Melt our cold heart
And tears fall like rain
Cime change our love
From a spark to a flame
God of the Poor
Friend of the weak
Give us compašsion We pray
Melt our cold heart
And tears fall like rain
Come change our love
From a spark to a flame
